Default Moving emails from Win 98 to XP

I have copied the email files (inbox.dbx, outbox.dbx, etc.) from my Win 98
PC. Some corruption on the harddrive or in the OS has prevented me from
exporting these messages. How can I get the emails out of these "dbx" files
and import them in to my new Win XP PC?

Any help would be appreciated.
