To enforce the XML check first set the following registry keys:
Office 2007 – HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Autodiscover\PreferLocalXML
Office 2010 – HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Autodiscover\PreferLocalXML
Value: 1
Type: DWORD
To set the path to the local XML file, set the following:
Office 2007 – HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Autodiscover\[Domain Name]
Office 2010 – HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Autodiscover\[Domain Name]
Value: Full Path to XML file
Type: STRING
For example, litware.com, and its value is the full path to the XML file,
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Office12\Outlook\AutoDiscover\litware.com.XML
An example XML file, and the schema for the is explained here:
