I believe that Thunderbird can open them fine. (That might be overkill though.)

Thanks for that (I use claws) I didn't think of Tbird.
Just tried Tbird on one file and it opened OK, then my PC froze solid (obviously it didn't like the MS file....) One reboot later I seem to be able to read the files in Tbird (one at a time). Since I have around 2000 of these it might take me a while though.
Cheers
