Your first few sentences describes exactly what we would like to do. Send a CD to all/most users with Outloo2002 deployment and a starting point OAB.

It can be done.[1] I worked through the logistics of doing so for a large
customer a couple of years ago. I believe they wound up writing a script to
wrap around the Outlook installation and configuration process which copied
the OAB files from a network share or possibly a CD. OL2003 might have some
other mechanisms for handling this... But I haven't seen the deployment
tools yet to be sure.

[1] At least through OL2K.
