If the profile is corrupt, you can rename the profile(while logged on as
local admin), then when the user logs on again a new profile will be created
from the image in \default user. You can then copy over the items you need
from the renamed profile. Copy the folder contents not the folders
themselves. When your sure you have all you need, you can delete the renamed
profile(s). Use the import function of your e-mail software. Don't overwrite
ntuser.dat

Next time make sure you have a current full and complete backup of all
important information.

are you logged on as a different user?

You need to quote at least part of the message to which you reply
otherwise no one knows what you're talking about.
