Fixing corrupted OE dbx

[Ronald]

Hello

OE doesn't recognize Inbox.dbx as a valid dbx file and creates new.
How to fix OE 6.0 Inbox.dbx file?
Is there any free tools?

I already found a DBExtract. But it's not the best solution.
Some extracted messages loose subject when imported back to valid Inbox and
message loose a date, as there is a present date everywhere.
Therefore just extracting all messages would be the last effort only after
fixing has failed.

Any ideas how to fix instead of extraction?
Thank you!

PS. Googling results are not very reliable as, there are many similar
applications under different names, description being just a copy of others.
Looks like it's someone business to sell a freeware solution under different
names.
