How to install and configure Outlook in a lab environment

[kentiler]

Hi,

We are planning on installing Exchange 2003 on our school's server and
giving students their own e-mail account. We need Outlook to be configured
automatically when they login to each computer in the lab. How can we do
this?

I've searched for documentation but have not found any, but this has to be a
popular solution!

Please help!

Couple of thoughts...

1) You can use the Custom Install Wizard (CIW) that is part of the Office
2003 resource kit to create that first run/time mail profile.

2) Create a custom logon script that creates the mail profile via a PRF
file. (I used the CIW to create this PRF file and did minor tweaks to it via
notepad).

3) Go third party (some links from
