If its a misplaced toolbar or an accendental deletion just go to program files and then outlook express. Its the same icon, named msimn, just copy(create shortcut, copy) it, re-name, and volia.

WAAAAIIITTT!

Did it disappear after you reinstalled Windows? I need some specifics here.

You can choose not to install Outlook Express during the Windows installation. It's listed as a Windows Component.

I think I deleted it by accident or moved the shortcut to some other unknown windows... Search turned up the folder, but the .exe was not in there... Was odd...

Start - Control Panel - Add Remove Programs - Windows Components - Find it in there, uninstall, reinstall it.
