This is an old but very effective (free) tool.

The latest "recommended" way by Microsoft is creating a custom installation
of Office (or just Outlook) XP... this can be done using the Custom
Installation Wizard (CIW) that's part of the Office XP Resource Kit... then
Outlook is deployed (installed) and will create the right %username% profile
when first opened by each user... if you have Office XP already deployed you
can use the Custom Maintenance Wizard (CMW) of that same Office XP Resource
kit to create a file that then can be used to modify your Outlook so it'll
create that profile next time it's opened... an even simpler method also
recommended as an option is to use the CIW, and then use an option it has to
"export" a "PRF" file... this PRF file is now "executable" in computers with
Outlook XP installed and will create that %username% profile automatically.
The old profgen & newprof utilities I assume will work well too.  I'm using
the PRF file thingy.

Look for profgen.exe in the Backoffice Resource Kit.  It has some
limitations, though.  I personally use a commercial product for that:
