I have changed the name of an user whilst in Windows
Explorer. I cannot find any of my old emails. I have
recovered several .dbx files from my recycle bin. These
have re-established my directories in Outlook, but I
still cannot locate any emails. Have I lost them all.

Firstly do NOT change user names in Windows Explorer. Do it the proper way
in Control Panel-Users and Accounts.
Does the folder C:\Documents and settings\username( the one before you
changed it) still exist?
