Subject: Any way to import Outlook Express Inbox into PC-Pine?

Hi All,

I'm clearly not as computer savvy as most of you out there, so please bear 
with me. I recently graduated from a university, and they have just closed 
my email account. I had used Pine on their Linux system to send & receive 
email. Before my account was closed, I decided to archive all of my old 
incoming and outgoing email messages from their server to my home computer. 
I was able to FTP all of the sent-mail folders to my computer, but wasn't 
able to do that with the Inbox, so I downloaded all my Inbox messages into 
Outlook Express 5. The consultants at my school suggested that I use PC-Pine 
to view the contents of my local folders, which has worked great to view my 
old sent-mail folders, but the only way I am able to view my old incoming 
messages is through Outlook Express. My question is: is there any way to 
convert the Inbox.dbx file that Outlook Express created into an Inbox folder 
that PC-Pine can view? I would love to be able to use the same program to 
view both my archived incoming and outgoing mail.

Thanks in advance,

Matt Badanek

Try the following site, theres a program called mbx2mbox which should do
what you want
     http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~dwc3q/code/index.html
or you can search for it on sourceforge which I beleive has a link for it as
well. Anyway, hope it does what you need.
