How do I "share" outlook across two user accounts in XP?
As it stands at the moment, we can only receive email on
one account and not on the other. My thoughts were that
if I set up outlook on the second account, and downloaded
the mail from the server I would not be able to view it
on one account and not the other and vice versa. Am I
correct in this assumption? Is there a way to solve this
or not?
 
You can solve this by moving the pst-files to a location both users can
reach (make a folder like C:\Outlook). Then when you start Outlook it will
prompt you for the pst-file location. Browse to the location to open the
moved pst-file. Set both users to use the same pst-file and you're set.

After having done a search of all my files etc, I can
only find one file named Outlook.pst and it is located on
the account that does not currently have any email server
details etc.
