See Bruce's reply.

You do not copy/paste DBX files into the message store, you import them.

Importing OE Data (all DBX files, including Folders.dbx)

Importing a single DBX file

Also note that if there was one byte of corruption in that Inbox.dbx
file, it would render the whole thing useless.

I recently had a computer reformatted. I copied all of the files from
the
Store Folder and pasted them back after the computer was reformatted.
All
of the files were then accessible except the Inbox.dbx. It is a 170mb
(the
user did not delete may of his messages) file and I can't figure out how
to
get to these messages. I have tried creating a file - accessing the
file -- deleting the file -- and then renaming the the inbox file to
match
the deleted file. This did not work. Is there a way of determining if
this
file is corrupt and fixing it? As I mentioned there were several files
that
were fine. It was just the Inbox.dbx.
