How to Configure pop3 mail account in outlook using Scripts

[Salila]

Hi There,

Programaticaly I wanted to configure a pop3 account in
Outlook using Javascript or VBScript. If any one can give
some hint related to this, it would be very helpful
to me.

Thanks in advance

You can't unless you use a 3rd party utility like ProfMan
(www.dimastr.com/redemption)

Even ProfMan won't help in this case unfortunately - IMAIL (POP3/SMTP)
provider is not Extended MAPI based...
Exchange, PST, etc are fine.

Right, AFAIK, the only way to do POP and IMAP accounts is with a .prf file
or hacking the registry.
