Did you back up an entire image of the system before the wipe or just specific data like media, documents, and such?

you can use this http://www.nucleustechnologies.com/pst-viewer.html to browse the PST (outlook) file and get the key

If you backed up your computer, you will have a backup of your PST file. Open that up and get the key. You can get a trial version of Office to do that with. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/try/try-office-2010-FX101868838.aspx?WT%2Emc%5Fid=ODC%5FENUS%5FOATProdHome%5FMonTry&culture=en%2Dus
