From Zarafa wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

For an automatic import of a new profile you can use a .prf file

The setting:

HomeServer=http://192.168.48.128:236/zarafa

Is the setting that you have to change.

The syntax to import the prf file is: outlook.exe /importprf \\path_to_prf_file\import.prf

Note 1: Outlook 2000 can not use prf files

Note 2: When you import the prf, the user has to give his password If single signon is used this is is not necessary


Example PRF file: import.prf

;Automatically generated PRF file from the Microsoft Office Customization and Installation Wizard
