Default Account install through .reg

I'm trying to make a register file that install a account.

All the datas are saved correctly except the password that in Outlook is set
empty.

I'm using Microsoft Outlook 2003 and a script similar to this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account
Manager\Accounts\00000100]
"Account "
"Connection Type"=dword:00000003
"POP3 Server"="pop.abc.df"
"POP3 User "
"POP3
Password2"=hex:01,02,6d,00,61,00,70,00,6c,00,2a,00 ,77,00,66,00,6c,00,65,\
00,7a,00,65,00,65,00,77,00,2e,00,63,00,6f,00,6d,00 ,41,00,43,00,46,00,43,00,\
44,00,34,00,38,00,50,00,00,00
"POP3 Use Sicily"=dword:00000000
"POP3 Prompt for Password"=dword:00000000
"SMTP Server"=""
"SMTP Display Name"="My name"
"SMTP Email "
"POP3 Skip Account"=dword:00000000

Anyone could give me a hand?

Default Account install through .reg

That looks like a registry entry left over from an older version of Outlook.
All of Outlook 2003's account settings are in a different key (search the
registry for Windows Messaging Subsystem).

If you need to load account details, use a .prf file. You can create such
..prf files with the Custom Installation Wizard or Custom Maintenance Wizard
tools in the Office Resource Kit. For more details, including a variety of
..prf deployment methods, read the excellent white paper "Configuring Outlook
Profiles by Using a PRF File" at
http://office.microsoft.com/search/r...60 I&respos=3

The page at http://www.slipstick.com/exs/olroam.htm includes information on
other profile tools and resources.

That's where Outlook Express accounts are kept. You can't affect Outlook that
way.
