How to access vrge file

[SoxFaninVA]

I work at a law firm and need to review a number of vrge files. Are vrge
file individual email files or are they the equivalent of a pst file which
is a collection of emails, calendar, contacts, etc?

We don't use Macs so we need the ability to view on a PC if possible. If
that is NOT possible we can borrow a Mac.

What is the best way to be able to view these vrge files on any platform?

Thanks,
Tom

These are Spotlight cache files. You can double click to open, but if the
Identity that has the original items no longer exists you cannot open using
this method.

If you have the Quick Look plugin for Entourage you can view using Quick
Look.

Note: a cache file will not necessarily contain the entire message. They
contain the attributes of the message (sender, time, subject, etc.) and the
first 75kb worth of text from the message's body. 90+% of messages are 2kb
or less once written to the cache.

that is NOT possible we can borrow a Mac.

I'm afraid they can only be read on a Mac.

Quick Look.
