Set Outlook 2010 to use a CA issued Signing Certificate as default?

Hi,
I am trying to get all our enterprise machines to use a digital signature issued by our own CA. I have reviewed the documentation on Office 2010 GPO's and am struggling to find where this option would be:

I basically would like to set it up so they dont have to use the trust center to select their own issued signature certificate on each machine but it seems to be an issue nobody else has looked into.
Any suggestions would be helpful, even if its to say its not possible!
Thanks in advance
Rob

Hi,
Refer to the description in the following article, the Office system since 2007 stores certificates for trusted publishers in the Internet Explorer trusted publisher store. You cannot use the Office Administrative Templates to add certificates to the trusted publishers list;

How about to create a logon script that uses the following command to add a certificate to computer:
