Username and password still be same, but I have to change Incomming and Out Going  Address and port for a lot of people, they are using MS Outlook.

I downloaded OCT, and group policy template but I cannot find out where to change SMTP and POP3 address.
Group Policies for Outlook are mostly for exchange server, nevertheless newer versions use autodiscover.

At least as I remember, Outlook 2003 stores the SMTP / POP3 settings in binary format in the registry, for 2007 and 2010 not sure.
If they are stored in the registry, you can just overwrite them by a group policy, which changes the settings to the right values.
But I can check this first at the end of the week.
