Migrating from one domain to another , how to cofigure outlo

Hi, we are changing our user from one domain to another, what is the best way
to change user's login info in the outlook ? I was looking into CIW or CMW
for that, but I didn't see an option where I can retain user's login info and
just change the domain.
I was thinking about enable the "Always prompt user for logon credentials"
under the Microsoft Exchange -> Security, so they can input the domain
themselves, but if there is another way , by scripting, and be able to
accomplishes the email migration by logon script, please do help Smile

thanks
a lot !

In short,

Is there a script I can change user logon domain in outlook from one to
another?

I found this in an an Experts-Exchange newsgroup posting
(http://www.experts-exchange.com/Applications/MS_Office/Outlook/Q_22031022.html)
which may help you with your issue:

Download Microsoft Office 2003 Resource Kit ( I assume 2003)
http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/e/d/0eda9ae6-f5c9-44be-98c7-ccc3016a296a/ork.exe

Install this and then run Microsoft Office 2003 Customisation Wizard, follow
the steps until you get to the step about creating a PRF file, go through
and customise your settings and than save your PRF file.

Now Open the PRF file and add BackupProfile=No (see below)

Now you can push this out to all your clients via login script or a shortcut
with the following command.

Outlook.exe /importPRF \\Server\Share\Outlook.PRF

All Done. Cheers

;Automatically generated PRF file from the Microsoft Office Customization
and Installation Wizard

[General]
BackupProfile=No
Custom=1
ProfileName=%Username%
DefaultProfile=Yes
OverwriteProfile=Yes
ModifyDefaultProfileIfPresent=FALSE
