Please only create one thread per problem.
Let me get this straight, you deleted a windows user account? What version of office do you have?
I don't have outlook installed at the moment but you should be able to access an option to import emails from a file. You will need to browse to the folder C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook [where username is the name of the account that you deleted and copy the Outlook.pst file to your user's my documents. Now from Outlook follow the directions from Micorosft.
I left out steps 1 & 7 because they are not not necessary for you.How to import .pst file data into Outlook
2. Open Outlook.
3. On the File menu, click Import And Export. If the command is not available, rest the pointer over the chevrons at the bottom of the menu, and then click Import and Export.
4. Click Import from another program or file, and then click Next.
5. Click Personal Folder File (.pst), and then click Next.
6. Type the path and the name of the .pst file that you want to import, and then click Next. [comment from me: just browse to your my documents and select it.]
8. Click Finish.
Once you import the .pst file it will expept it to be in the location that you provided it. If you move the file you will have to import the file again. I hope this helps. Note that if the username folder is gone then the emails have been deleted and the only way to recover the file is through specialized, expensive software that isn't guaranteed to work. Or can you have outlook re-download the emails from the server?

I found that just after i posted the issue but could not figure out how to remove my posts. Sorry about that.
Thats ok. Only the moderators or the administrator can remove threads. I'm glad that you where able to figure it out.
You can try a popular Outlook recovery tool called Advanced Outlook Repair
Good luck!
