While logged on as local admin you can rename the corrupt profile. 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. Use the import
function of your e-mail software.
