Retrieving Emails from Uninstalled vbulletin

[bolynn]

Hello, Im not sure if this is the correct place for this question, so mods feel free to move it if needed...

I have an old vbulletin forum that I backed up....its no longer installed on a site, however I do have the backup of it!

I want to just retrieve the email address of the members on the backup....What file do I need to get the list of email addresses?

Is there a way to retrieve the email address's without installing the backup ?

Any help would be appreciated!!

thank you!

you need to install only the database (at least user table) to any MYSQL server (you can launch your own MYSQL server in your local computer too, there is a how-to doc in hints forum). Then use this SQL command in Phpmyadmin or similiar tools:

SELECT email FROM user
