title: Configure Outlook Mail Settings Programmatically?
body: <p>Was wondering if there was a simple way to add and configure a POP3 server to Outlook's mail server settings programmatically?</p>
  
  <p>Searching Google seems to yield results that tell me I have to reverse-engineer the gobbledygook stored under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles. My employer wanted to see if it was possible to quickly bang out a program to configure our users' POP3 settings (we're spread out around the country) and so far this is looking anything but simple.</p>
  
  <p>I have VS2008 and all the Windows/Office built-in scripting tools at my disposal, though I don't know a lick of C++ (only C, C# and some web/linux stuff, I am self-taught).</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know of a simpler way to access Outlook's mail profiles in order to add to or tweak them?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
