Default Profile or PRF question

Hello,

Following configuration: We have an IMAP server (kolab) and most of the
people are using Thunderbird for accessing their emails. I would like to give
them also the possibility to use Outlook as part of the Office 2007 suite ...
As Outlook is not really able to work with IMAP (I know, you CAN use it, but
all "nice" features won't work and files are cached on the kocal hard disk,
which is a pain .... if you use roaming profiles ...): So anyway: I am
testing some Outlook connectors, and one of them is working very well, but I
have ONE BIG PROBLEM:

I need an option to configure Outlook profiles for a lot of users, so I
would like to use PRF files, which generally works great, BUT there is no
good (!) documentation about the use of PRF and what I am missing most is a
tool for exporting an existing, pre-defined profile (with all connector and
LDAP and ... settings) to a PRF file!
All I can find are links to the OCT which is absolut useless for this.

Anyone can help me?

C.

P.S.: And a word to "MS": You cannot expect, that all people are using a
Exchange server, and if you want them to use at least your client products,
than help them making it work. Thank you.
