Hi Alexander,

I suspect that the answer lies in the results of this search:

http://www.google.com/search?as_q=registry&num=100&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=%22outlook+is+configured%22&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=all&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&safe=images

A similar search of Google Groups might be needed, if that doesn't do it.
