You need to create new user accounts for you and your wife.
From a post by Malke:
make a
new account and copy the data from the other two into it. If you want
the new account to have the same settings as one of the other accounts,
follow the instructions at the link below. Otherwise, just copy over
your data. You will need to log into the new account once before you
can copy anything to it.

Do this for each Identity.
Switch to your wife's user account.
Do the same thing.

In my user account when I open Outlook Express/File/Identities/Manage
Identities I find "Main Identity" listed in all three boxes on that
page.
And then, when I do the same under my wife's account, I also find
"Main
Identity" in all three boxes. Does this mean I've configured our
e-mail
accounts incorrectly or does this just mean that the identity of that
particular instance of OE that's open(my user account...or my wife's
account)
is the "Main Identity" for that account?

and still cannot make the Address Book work for other users on my
computer.
I'm running xp media center (xp pro sp2), ie 6, with me on an
administrator
account and my wife on a limited account. We like to use oe6 for
e-mail
but
when trying to set up her address book for it I get the error msg.
about
address book corrupted, etc. which was supposedly caused by
kb911567.
I've
tried setting her up as an administrative acct. and the address book
opens
but it's the address book from my admin. acct., not a new address
book
specifically for her. When I open her address book in windows
explorer,
it
shows two .wab files- administrator.wab and administrator.wab~, same
as
my
address book. I suspect my problem has something to do with this
since I
presume her .wab files should be specific to her. I've tried the
kb918651,
kb918766 fix to no avail. I've modified the registry to show ie and
oe
uninstalled so I could re-install them. That did not work. I think
that
if I
could modifiy her .wab files I could get her address book going but
I'm
not
quite sure what to do. Any help would be appreciated as I've been
racking my
brain on this for about 2 weeks.
