Pre-configure thunderbird for new users

Hi,

If I'm running a sort of "client-server" network model setup, I was wondering how I can have thunderbird installed on all computers and when a user logs into the machine for the first time, Thunderbird be already configured with incoming servers, accounts, smtp servers, and everything? Maybe a config file I could export from a current setup and have a policy or logon script run it?

I need a fresh new windows user to be able to log in and have thunderbird already configured to them with specialist stmp servers that I'd need to tell it to use (not the ones thunderbird picks up itself) and have passwords already remembered.

Many thanks
