After rename user from AD, the user can logon as the new username and using the old user profile. Nothing need to be changed/moved.
However, Outlook 2003 still showing the old name when the user send email.
I reset the AutoComplete Names from Outlook 2003 and sent the user an email using Addressbook and after that the new username show correctly...
I wonder if that is the real problem or actually the ADs are not in-sync...

Reset AutoComplete Cache
1. Quit Outlook and any applications that may be accessing Outlook.
2. Start Windows Explorer or My Computer.
3. Click "Tools", "Options" and then the "View" tab.
4. Under "Advanced Setting", verify/change the option to enable "Show Hidden Files and Folders".
5. Click OK or Apply to exit.
6. Click, "Start", "Search" and choose "For Files or Folders".
7. In the box, type "*.nk2"
8. In the "Look in" box, ensure that your local drive (C: usually is chosen.)
9. Click search now. The search should find at least one file.
10. If numerous files were found, choose the one from named after own profile (which is named after your username).
11. Right click on the correct file and choose "Rename".
12. Change the suffix to .bak so if your username was "jbloggs" the file could be called jbloggs.nk2 and you would rename it to jbloggs.bak.
13. Close Windows Explorer and restart Outlook.
