.PBB File Extension

MS Mail Address Information File

Data File
.PBB files are created by "Microsoft Mail for PC Networks" during mail transfer across asynchronous (async) or X.25 communication links.

A .0LK file is used to control access to a specific mail outbound queue, and a .PBB file is used to ensure that the same mail item can be sent to multiple destinations by different Externals at the same time.

For phone numbers to ne transfered to an IPhone they are first saved to a pbb file. How are they then downloaded to the IPhone?

I wrote a pbb to csv converter, which can be imported to the iPhone via Outlook Express or Yahoo Address Book.

Vince, you are a star. The program/extract you wrote to export the pbb file to cvs worked like a charm. Thanks.

Thank God for people like you. AT&T has no idea what they're talking about. I will be directing friends to use your converter!

Vince,
Would you let me know how to access or use your program? I've spent an inordinate number of hours and calls to both AT&T and Apple tech support (after hours of perma- hold) to no avail. They each referred me back and forth over the last 3 days. I finally transferred my contacts to the Kingston USB, but can't download into Outlook 2002 or Express. I'd love to join your mutual admiration society. I'll be waiting...

This isn't a support forum. You can email me via my web page with the specific problems you're having, or post on the Apple support forums.

Thanks, Vince - you rock! This a ridiculous problem that neither Apple, nor AT&T can guide people through.

For those that need the converter, Vince posted the address earlier: www.sixpak.org/pbbreader/

Vince, many thanks for the amazingly easy to use converter. It's too bad Apple and AT&T couldn't figure out something like this for new iPhone purchasers that are leaving behind devices that ran Windows mobile.

Bow down to the greatness of Vince. That was so easy it's sick that I spent 40 minutes on hold with AT&T to get the standard "Leave your cell phone number and our tech will call you back."

I've just found that you can open a .PBB file and recover a list of readable names and phone numbers by using the "Recover text from any file" option in MS Word. For someone who has only a short list of numbers and is willing to print the list and re-enter them by hand, that at least gives you the info that was on the previous phone.

I have some pbb files on my memory stick, which are files saved from my cell phone and I want to open it on my laptop. What must I download to be able to see these files?
