Default Automate Outlook profiles for imaging

Is there a way to automate outlook profile creation in imaging?

Meaning I have created a string in the registry to force all PST's to My
Documents, but I would like for all new outlook profiles created on each
machine to hae the RPC over HTTP already configured etc. Is there a way to
standardize this prior to creating my images?

Microsoft uses text files with a .prf extension and a highly structured
format to provide information to OUtlook that enables Outlook to create or
modify a mail profile. You can create such .prf files with the installation
and maintenance tools in the Office Resource Kit. For more details, including
a variety of .prf deployment methods, read the excellent white paper
"Configuring Outlook Profiles by Using a PRF File" at
http://office.microsoft.com/search/r...60 I&respos=3

The page at http://www.slipstick.com/exs/olroam.htm includes information on
other profile tools and resources.
