Does any expert have any experience following with the outlook.prf file so
that everyone logging into to say a given workstation will not have to go
thru the Outlook Setup wizard to find their mailbox?

I don't use the prf file, but rather the Custom INstallation Wizard from the
Office Resource Kit, which creates a MST to alter the default Office
Installation.

You can add it to a log on script - if you need help creating it, use the
CIW.
