Default W2k just died

got a corrupt software hive, which I managed to replace with the backup from 2001

Only things I am missing is Outlook and all the mails double from the past 2 years.

Anyone know what the file is called that holds the mail? I thought it had a .pst extension, but I don't have any pst files
