Hi all,

Does anyone know how to find out what the default mail delivery
location in Outlook 2003 is?

Is this somewhere in the registry or in some obscure file on the HD?

I know you can of course look in Outlook (under Accounts), but I need
to be able to script this ...

We are using Outlook 2003 clients on Win XP.

Any help is appriciated!

The mails are delivered to Outlook's pst-file in that all mails,
contacts etc. are stored. Which file your Outlook is using you find out
under

Control Panel | Mail | Datafiles

Brian, Christian,

thank you for your answers, but I am looking for a way to retrieve
this info from the registry.

I need to be able to script this, so I can report how many of our 6000
users are using PST files as their delivery location.

Thanks!

While it's in the registry, pretty sure it's all hex and not easy to pull
out and may even vary on each workstation.

However, I'm pretty sure that in the Exchange Administrator, you can drill
down to see the size of each users Inbox (and I'm sure it's able to be
exported too) so why not just dig through and find all the users whose Inbox
are 0kb and work in a margin of error to consider that anyone not running
Outlook at that moment will still have their mail on the server thus not be
0kb.
