[UniMacTech] Entourage database recovery - folders important

Hi UniMactech community,

I¹m looking for some help or hints on recovering someone¹s Entourage
database, but specifically I need to be able to identify the contents of a
particular folder. 

The database was 2.3GB when it corrupted prompting him to Rebuild. After a
rebuild the database was 1.91GB and missing a significant amount of emails
from a particular folder he¹d been working in.

I ran the original 2.2GB database through Entouraid and recovered what seems
to be the entire database as an ³mbox file² which I have imported into
Entourage. 

What I¹m trying to work out is how can I possibly identify which of these
emails was in the particular folder that he needs.

Has anyone ever successfully recovered folder information from a damaged
Entourage database? Could it be coded somewhere in the file? I tried opening
with text edit or BBedit because apparently the file is too large.

Any clues, hints, or suggestions would be hugely appreciated.

Cheers
