    If you want to import old DBX files into Outlook 2021 the easiest method is to convert them into PST format first. I had the same issue with old Outlook Express backup files and the Softaken DBX to PST Converter worked very well. It quickly converts DBX files into PST format that is fully supported by Outlook 2021. It keeps all emails, attachments, folder structure and formatting unchanged during the process. It also supports batch conversion so you can import multiple DBX files at once. After conversion simply open the PST file in Outlook 2021 and access all your old emails without any difficulty and data loss.

    Old DBX files usually come from Outlook Express, so Outlook 2021 or Microsoft 365 desktop Outlook will not open them directly. The practical way is to convert DBX emails into PST format first, then import that PST file into Outlook. I had a similar case with some old Outlook Express mailbox files. I used GainTools DBX to PST Converter for converting the DBX emails into PST. It allowed me to select the required DBX file and save the PST output locally. The emails, attachments and common email fields like To, From, CC and BCC were kept during conversion.
    After conversion, open Outlook and go to File > Open & Export > Import/Export, then import the PST file. Keep the original DBX files backed up before starting and test one small DBX file first.

    The best solution to import old DBX files into Outlook 2021 or Microsoft 365 is to first convert the DBX files into PST format. Outlook Express stores emails in DBX files, but modern versions of Outlook do not support opening DBX files directly.

    You can use a DBX to PST conversion tool to transfer all your emails, attachments, contacts, and folder structure into a PST file. Once the PST file is created, simply open it in Outlook 2021 or Outlook 365 using the Import/Export feature.

    When choosing a solution, make sure it:

    Preserves email formatting and attachments.
    Maintains folder hierarchy.
    Supports bulk DBX file conversion.
    Handles large mailbox files.
    Prevents data loss during the conversion process.

    For a quick and reliable migration, BitRecover DBX to PST Converter is a recommended solution. It allows users to convert Outlook Express DBX files to PST format in bulk while preserving emails, attachments, metadata, and folder structure. After conversion, the generated PST file can be easily imported into Outlook 2021, Outlook 365, and other Outlook versions.
