Example:
Filter: Global Settings
Action: Create - Only if No Profiles Exist
Mail Profile Name: ENTRIGUE
Exchange Server: ATLEX01
Mailbox Name: @userid
Enable Personal Address Book: Selected
PAB Location: H:\mail.pab
Enable Personal Folders: Not Selected
Enable Offline Folders: Not Selected
Enable Offline Address Book: Not Selected
Set as Default Profile: Selected
The above example will create a mail profile named ENTRIGUE only if no profiles currently exist. This example leverages the KiXtart macro @userid. When Script Start executes, the @userid macro is expanded into the username. Therefore, the above example will create a mail profile that connects to each user's mailbox on the exchange server named ATLEX01. The mail profile will be configured to use H:\mail.pab as a personal address book and will be set as the default profile.
