I think your memory is correct on DOSCIM.  I remember the cryptic file names,
very annoying, and the message file format, very annoying, readable only with
DOSCIM, and sometimes I couldn't read anything but recovered after rebuilding
indexes.  Later versions of WINCIM, as well as OS2CIM, had the whole file
cabinet in one file, but the format was proprietary, readable only with WINCIM
or OS2CIM.
