I am new to scripting, I would like to know if there is any script for MS
outlook getting configured automatically at logon by user in domain. I have
tried some of the documents suggested by different forums but I am clear
with them. Can any one help me with the script which will automatically
configure outlook at logon.

At the same time let me know if there is an option to delete the profile
from local computer at logoff(either through group policy or script).
Profile is not a romaming profile.

When you install Outlook you should configure the outlook profile as part of
creating a transform file with the Custom Installation Wizard. If you have
already deployed outlook then you can modify the installation using the
custom maintenance wizard.

Create a maintenance wizard file that configure outlook with the name of
your exchange server and %username% as the user name, then copy the
maintwiz.exe file to the startup scripts folder of a GPO and create a
startup script to apply the maintwiz file to the machine.

Once applied, new profiles will simply have to launch outlook and it will
connect to exchange automatically. I generally create a CNAME for the
Exchange server called "mail" and configure outlook to point to this. This
way if you migrate to a new exchange server you wont have to modify all your
desktops again.

The Custom Installation Wizard and the Custom Maintenance Wizard are both
part of the Office Resource Kit.

Cheers,
Jeremy.
