I accidetally moved a few of my distribution lists to the "Inbox" folder.

Now I find them neither in the Inbox nor in the Contacts.

How can I get these distribution lists back without re-constructing them?

How?  Dragging a DL to the Inbox opens a Compose window with the DL in the
To field.  So does selecting the DL and choosing Edit>Move to Folder.
Clicking File>Move to Folder from an open DL item produces a compose window
with the DL as an attachment, deleting the DL from the Contacts folder and
placing it in Deleted Items.  I can find no way to get a DL into Inbox.
Exactly what version of Outlook are you using?

Did you look in Deleted Items?

Can't answer that yet.

The accident actually happened while I was using the Web access version of
the outlook 2003.

Outlook Web Access is a feature of Exchange, so asking in the
m.p.exchange.clients newsgroup may get you an answer more quickley.
