Default Outlook Express on a Home Network

Hi!

Can anyone help me on this one.....?

I have two desktop PCs connected together in a wireless home network.
Both are running IE 6.0 under Windows XP Professional (which I
believe are totally up to date).

Is it possible for a user/identity combinatiion in OE to point to the
same data store from both PCs (I want people to see the same e-mails,
newsgroups when they log on to OE from either PC)? If so, can you
please advise how?

My attempts so far seem to indicate that OE likes to have its data
store on any logical drive on a physical drive, but not across a
network link (i.e. on another physical drive) - but I could be doing
the stuff wrong.....

Thanks for any help on this matter.....

Martin


These days most mail accounts can also be accessed by IMAP. you could try
setting up an OE account using the same user name, password and servers.

IMAP accounts keep messages on the server until you delete them.
