Default opening/using old dbx files

I recently found an old backup which, to my surprise, included many old OE
files...I can only assume from reading the names, that it's all the folders
from an earlier version of OE. I should point out that these files are not
from a backup done with any OE utilities but a simple copy of my old c and
d drives. As a later crash caused me to lose--or so I thought at the
time--many old messages and folders and I haven't thought about them since.
Obviously, if there's a way, I'd like to restore them. Looking at Inside OE
I can only find references to files which have been stored or backup from
OE. Is there a way to open or copy or in some way get to the information in
these dbx files?

Thanks,
Tim
