open the exchange account information from control panel, mail and disable

Exchange Server 2003.

it should work the same unless the prf is making a mess of things... see
http://www.slipstick.com/emo/2004/up040708.htm#sbs.

http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/prf.htm has information on using prfs -
you should just be able to open the prf and edit the path if you want all
ost's moved, or just disable use of the prf.
