Use Powershell to erase a Outlook 2003 POP3 email account & create a new account.

I can look at this, but how to you plan on running the script? local or remote?

The script will be ran local on the computers.

it is safe to assume Powershell will be installed locally then?

Yes Powershell is installed locally & and running version 1.0

I will look into that and see if it will work for what I want to do.  Thank you for the help.

were you able to work this out?

Thank you for your help. It looks like this will work, but it will take some time; I am not a VB programer.

"I am not a VB programer."

Good thing this is Powershell ;)

seriously... I am here all the time. Feel free to post if you have any more questions.

I have found a way to do the task without using VB. Go into the registry and remove the key & sub keys for
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Outlook
This will remove the outlook profile for the user. The site I used for a refference is; http://www.techspot.com/vb/all/windows/t-8927-Outlook-2003-Accounts-File.html
The site does not tell how to do this but it gives the path for the HKEY_Users.  

Thanks for all the help, I would not have know what to search for without it.

here is the exact powersehll command

Remove-Item hkcu:\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Outlook\* -force

Enjoy

Sorry it removed the syntax

Remove-Item hkcu:\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Outlook\* -force
