There is lots of wasted space in dbx files so there is no way to determine
if there was message loss from the size of the files. Also, I have seen
huge dbx files that have become corrupted and are full of zeroes.

see here for message recovery techniques (www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4) and
points 2 and 3 for the future.

Hi,

Thanks for ur suggestions, but I noticed the Sent Items.dbx files which
I copied from the folder of Identities the size was 34Mb but when I
restored again by importing messages in Outlook express the size was 16
Mb. Current sent Item size is 16MB while the Original size is 34MB. How
do I go ahead now.
