All your emails in outlook express are stored in a .dbx file.  Mine are stored here... 
   C:\Documents and Settings\John\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{92AF9703-246B-4BBE-BD7E-7B455A7EBA01}\Microsoft\Outlook 
Express\Inbox.dbx   To access this file you must go to folder options and check "show 
hidden files and folders" option.  Not sure if you can extract a single email though. 
 Do a google search on extracting email messages from outlook express, I came up 
with a few hits, didn't look at them though.
