we have a peer to peer network and would like to use
outlook on the network so that we can email from multiple
computers using the same [email protected] address
we would like to keep all the messages on one machine and
have the other machines point to that one to work from
is this possible without setting up a whole exchange server
situation using a seperate machine

thank you

In that case you cannot use Outlook Express. However, even using Outlook,
only one instance of Outlook will be able to access the mail at any one
time.

I disagree - if you are using "(e-mail address removed)" and

using Outlook Express (OE), then you are using POP3
account. Unless your ISP who provides your email account
sets some type of connection limit (just might) then
anyone who has internet access can setup OE to access
that same email account - no problem - done it!

But the OP wants to keep all messages on one machine, and OE cannot use
networked drives to store mail, therefore the OP MUST use Outlook.
