[mso] Re: universal use of Outlook

The pupils each have a different username. The e-mail "belongs" to  the 
computer. There are an unknown number of pupils who may use each 
computer. It isn't possible to  set up the e-mail for each potential 
user. In XP the definitions of the e-mail aren't transfered to each 
user. That is what I'm trying to achieve. Each user has to re-configure 
the e-mail. For example the settings are:

email address: computer2@xxxxxxxxxx

pop3: pop.school.com

smtp: smtp.school.com


None of these remain when a new user logs in. The reason is clear, in XP 
there is a separation of users (unlike windows98). I need to have the 
Outlook keep these definitions for ALL users. Can it be done?
