I'd like to automate the creation of a mail profile (in addition to the
default one). I've done this by importing a custom PRF file:
outlook.exe /importprf <path to PRF file>

However, this launches Outlook and requires user action to close it before
the rest of the script can run.

Could I create this profile by importing a REG file created from a PC that
has that mail profile?
(HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\<Profile Name>)
 
No. Consider deploying a msp or cmw file instead. These are designed for
deploying Office settings. See the Office Resource Kit of your version of
Office for more info on this.

Take a look at Outlook Profiler and see if it meets your needs...
