Look in your Deleted Items folder.

which deleted items folder? I seach the folder under the personal folder,
they are all emails, not any contact info.

What I deleted is the contact infomation in contact folder. It is a mailing
list containing all email address.

Please help me for that.

Thanks for in advance.

If you deleted a distribution list from your Contacts folder, it would have gone into the Deleted Items folder in the same Personal Folders file. There is only one such Deleted Items folder per .pst file. That's where all items that you delete go, unless you use Shift+Delete to delete them permanently (in which case, you can't recover them).

The Deleted Items folder in the message store where the original folder
resides is the Deleted Items folder to which a deleted item will be moved,
provided you didn't permanently delete it, no matter what type of item it
is. So, if you deleted a contact (a Distribution List, for example) fromt
he Contacts folder under "Personal Folders", then that DL will be in Deleted
Items also under "Personal Folders".
 
Ok, I found it now, thank you so much.
