I'm in the process of rebuilding a server. My users on my network prefer to use Outlook Express as their mail client. Obviously, I'd like to syncronize the OE data back to the server upon logoff of the user for backup. I know enough to manually change the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\...\OE 5.0] Key to move the store directory to, lets say, %user_profile%\Application Data\Identities\{GUID}\Microsoft\Outlook Express. Once moved from the Local Settings directory to the Application Data directory, the folder synronizes with the profile back to the server. Now, I understand how to do that manually per each client. How can I automate the process? A REG file maybe? The OS on the Server is Windows 2000 Server with a fresh nicely working install of AD. It would be cool if the process would work much like the My Documents redirect. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
