Open Outlook Express, click Tools/Options/Maintenance and then Store Folder
button to determine where the *DBX* files are located. MBX files were used
in Outlook Express 4. For info on moving it, see this link:

I upgraded to XP Professional. I was using XP Home before and had it
working.
I can't figure out how to change where the mbx files are. When I go to
properties, it shows me where they are, but won't let me change it.

Thanks,

Joel

It's possible to share your entire store with other users of a WinXP
machine, but not just the inbox.

It's also possible for 2 or more users of an email address to be able to
access all incoming messages without sharing a store.

How can I change the location of the local folders in Outlook Express.

would like to share the local folders with another user, so I would
like
to put the folder in a location that can be accessed by both of us,
ie - a
folder in c:\Mail
