SubjectRe: OT: corrupted e2fs super-block

I have a mail spool drive w/ corrupted super-block
and don't know how to recovery the data.

How did it get corrupted? That's actually important for trying to
figure out how to fix it.

Tried "e2fsck -b <8192*[1-20]+1> /dev/sdb1" and same "bad
magic number " error.

Are you sure the partition table didn't get fried, or that something the
beginning of the partition got changed? If so that would explain the
symptoms that you've described.
