Default Migrating Outlook settings from local user account to domain user accounts

Howdy - we are in the process of moving all of our workstations onto a
WS2k3 controlled domain. Most of our users have Outlook 2003 as the
mail client, and I'm trying to find a way to move all their settings
across onto the new profile of their machines (we use an IMAP server,
not an exchange server btw)

At the moment we are using a script to copy most of their old settings
(desktop, quick launch, my docs etc) from their local profile into the
new profile location on the server - however we're not getting the
outlook settings.

Whilst all the settings can be recreated reasonably easily, having to
export/import message rules, reenter server settings will become very
time consuming once having to do it on many many machines - how can we
automated this process?

I'd also like to keep (if possible) everyone email address auto-
completes and address books.

Any suggestions?


Ok, so I've got everything except the account/server settings. Where
on earth do they live?
