How to find Outlook Express Mailbox

Hi all,

I know this question has been asked before, but none of the solutions in the database helped me.

I'm using Outlook 6, with Windows 2000 Professional.

A search for any files of the types .dbx or .mbx doesn't show anything. I have a slight memory, that I 2 years ago changed the location of the inbox... but I can't remember where I put.

Any hints?

regards,

henrik

Hey outlook used .pst file and not .dbx file
only Outlook express uses .DBX

--

Look for *.pst file searching in hidden folders
Mostly it would be found in
C:\Documents and Settings\{your profile name}\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
Henrik,

Do confirm .. in subject you mention Outlook express and message you have said outlook .. But I guess since you have said outlook 6  , it could be outlook express 6.. Anyway if it is not outlook then check out asyscokid suggestion
