Easiest way with Outlook Express to fix a corrupt dbx file is to close OE then navigate to the DBX files and move them out to another folder on your desktop. Fire up Outlook Express again and it should recreate new DBX files. Once you have that going then import the old file into the new one with the import tool in OE and this will bring all the data it can into the new file and skip any corruption.

You might lose a few emails but this is the quickest way I have found.
