I use poledit.exe and the outlook.adm templete to define the path of my pst files. I did put them on the server in the personal folder in a hidden non accessable path for the users (example P:\.email ) at first start outlook wil create in p:\.email\ the file Outlook.pst if alread one exist it will create Outlook1.pst.
