Default Roaming Profiles , Laptops with Outlook Cached mode Offline files

Setup :-
Windows 2003 SBS

Old Laptop
Outlook 2003
Windows XP

New Laptop
Windows XP
Outlook 2003

The problems :-

The old laptop has a roaming profile folder of username.DOMAIN I cannot get
the new laptop to create and use a roaming profile with this folder it just
creates a profile folder called username.

The old laptop is using cached mode and therefore has a large OST file which
is on the laptop itself in the username.DOMAIN folder it also has an
archive.pst with the same setup.

How can I get the old laptops email folders and setup to correctly create
and copy onto the new laptop which will not create the username.DOMAIN folder
and which cannot recieve the OST file or the PST file as they are local to
the old machine.

How should the roaming profile actually be setup and handle Outlook for
laptop users, what should be setup for off line use of outlook so that a user
can create emails etc .. offline

Our laptop users use Wireless, VPN connections , Network connections this
needs to be a seemless transition and they should be able to hop from a
client machine to any laptop but initally I do need to resolve the transfer
from old to new laptop.

Many Thanks
