Big Problem

My fiance was recently setting up her parents on Outlook 2007 and was
bringing their messages in from a pop3 server, yahoo mail to be exact. She
had created a profile for each of her parents but realized that her father's
was the main account and that her mother's needed to be instead. Well she
deleted her father's profile and reloaded it but when she reloaded it all of
her father's emails were gone from both outlook and yahoo mail. Is there
anything that we can do to recover these emails? PLEASE HELP

They are contained in the outlook data file, the *.pst file; possibly named
outlook.pst.
You have to search to include hiddon files to find the file, or in IE enable
'hiddon files view' the file will be within the users (docs & settings)
folder
Once found, within Outlook, File>Open>Data File

DL thank you for getting back to me. I not sure why but for some reason that
isn't pulling anything up. It is telling me that no items matched my search.
I have downloaded a couple of programs designed to retrieve deleted emails
but when they come up with a list of emails to retrieve they only go back a
month and want me to pay to retrieve them. Could their be more than just a
months worth retrievable but the programs aren't showing me those emails
until i pay? Also do you have any other suggestions as to how to find them
myself or what might have happened? Once again thank you so much and please
help

I had this same error. I went to microsoft error messages and it told me to
delete the registry key. Which I did and it work, BUT now my contacts and
old emails are missing
