| Description | Microsoft Outlook Express-based DBX files harbor folders with letters. In turn, the letters are packed in mailboxes. Since files are assigned to specific folders, they are named and suffixed respectively, so files assigned to Inbox are named inbox.dbx; similarly, files assigned to the Draft mailbox are suffixed drafts.dbx. Because DBXs can be copied, you can back up all your letters. Microsoft Outlook Express is the simplest and therefore most preferred program in terms of editing or importing a DBX. Manual modification may lead to corruption and mess up the work of the client. |

| Description | The TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a widely-used file format for storing digital images, developed by Aldus Corporation (now owned by Adobe Systems). It is a versatile format that supports a wide range of color depths, resolutions, and image types, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications. TIFF files can contain multiple images, each with their own characteristics such as resolution, compression, and color depth. They can also be uncompressed or compressed using a variety of methods, such as LZW, ZIP, and JPEG compression. Additionally, TIFF files can store metadata such as keywords, descriptions, and copyright information. One of the key benefits of the TIFF format is its support for high-quality, lossless image compression. This makes it a popular choice for archiving and sharing images, especially in fields such as graphic design, printing, and photography. TIFF files can also support transparent backgrounds, making them ideal for use in web graphics and other applications where transparency is important. TIFF files can be opened and edited using a wide variety of software programs, including Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, and Microsoft Paint. They are also supported by many operating systems and web browsers. Overall, the TIFF format is a robust and versatile format for storing digital images. Its ability to support multiple images, high-quality compression, and metadata make it a popular choice for a variety of applications, especially those requiring high-quality images. |

DBX is Outlook Express's proprietary mail store — a binary format sealed away from modern email clients and document tools. Converting DBX to TIFF renders each email as a lossless, print-ready image accepted by document management systems, print workflows, and professional archiving solutions. Drop your .dbx file above.
DBX is the folder-level mail store used by Outlook Express, Microsoft's email client bundled with Windows 98 through Windows XP. Each .dbx file is a proprietary binary container holding many email messages — headers, rich-text bodies, and attachments. Outlook Express was discontinued after Windows XP; no current email client reads .dbx files natively, making the archives inaccessible without a converter.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is the industry-standard lossless raster format for professional print, scanning, and document archiving. It preserves every pixel without compression artifacts, supports multipage documents in a single file, and is accepted by virtually every document management system, legal records platform, and prepress workflow. TIFF is the correct choice when image quality and long-term readability are non-negotiable.
