you're welcome.
however, I have some bad
news.
unfortunately, if you executed
a factory restore,
then everything on the disk
was wiped away.
the disk was basically reset
with all the original software
that came with the machine
at the time it left the factory.
however, if you have an
email account with your isp
and outlook was configured
to download messages from
your isp email service,
then perhaps there are
copies of the emails stored
on your isp's server in your
web email account.
for example:
at&t provides internet services
and email accounts to its
customers as well.
so if outlook was set up to
retrieve emails from your at&
email account,
then there may be copies
of your emails stored in your
email account with at&t.
