Programmatically create profile for Outlook 2016


For Outlook 2010, 2013 it was possible to programmatically create Outlook profile and set up all necessary RPC_OVER_HTTP connection settings via MAPI like in this article: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dvespa/archive/2013/05/21/how-to-mfcmapi-create-mapi-profile-exchange-2013.aspx.

However, looks like this approach is not working for Outlook 2016. Anybody knows is it ever possible to manually setup connection settings(or whatever else) for Outlook 2016 to create new profile?
