If the mail was transfered to outlook it would have created a pst file in c:\(*)\local settings\application data\microsoft\outlook. If not there do a search for inbox and it should give you the directory for the mail folders for OE. Open that folder then look for other inbox folders.

* Depending on OS it could be winnt or windows. Or if you have profiles set up you will have to open you profile under documents and settings then the rest. Local settings is a hidden file so make sure you have the correct settings in view options.
