Encryption from Outlook to Exchange GPO

[Guest]

I know it is possible to import office administrative templates (.adm files)
for GPO editing. I was wondering if there was a setting for Encrypting
messages from Outlook to Exchnage (internal email) from the Outlook2003
administrative template? This setting is available in Outlook but I can't
seem to find any setting in the admin template that would allow me to do
this. I don't want to go to every computer and set it up manually.

Thanks

No, that setting, like all mail profile settings is not a simple, static registry value and so can't be set with the group policy tools that Microsoft provides. I'm sure Profile Manager from http://www.desktopstandard.com can do it, though.

So is there a script that can be run at the desktop level to enable this
across 3000 machines?

None that I've ever seen. You'd have to reverse engineer the registry values for Exchange accounts and find the right value to change without messing up something else.
