OE .dbx repair tool?

[bofbuidur]

hey all.

got a problem with a users outlook express where deleting and moving emails between their outlook EXPRESS folders is.. well.. painful at best.. CPU runs high, everything runs slowly. i'm thinking it's some sort of corrupted DBX file.. without doing a painful extract all the messages/txt files/blah blah on a trial version; has anyone seen anything that'll just do a db recover and rebuild on the files?

i think the emails are in ok, just the actual DBX file is a bit... squiffy?

Have you checked the hard drive's health with CrystalDisk Info or gSmartControl? If it indicates amy warnings or errors, you need to image the drive with ddrescue and work on the image. (I assume you don't have a hardware imager.)
