Default How to create .PRF without the MST

Howdy all.
Thanks for replies/information.

I modified the custom11.prf file to use our exchange server and have
tried it twice and it works.
Now I'm looking for information on how I may use the user's name
variable, e.g. %username%, that I used to create the .OST file as the
profile
name. When I used it (%username%), the profile name was just that not
JDoe or John Doe which is what I would really like. I read the
Outlook
Deployment Options: Customizing a PRF File but it did not address how
to create a profile name on the fly via the .PRF.

Below is the profile section that I'm using.

Thanks,
Rey

[General]
Custom=1
;ProfileName=%UserName% -- want to use this vice manually entering
John Doe
DefaultProfile=Yes
OverwriteProfile=Append
ModifyDefaultProfileIfPresent=TRUE
