We have a single POP3 mail server that collects all email for both my wife
and I (same domain with different addresses). Originally I had seperate .pst
files for both of our XP accounts on the same machine (which is the default)
but realized we were wasting space (and time) by both getting the exact same
emails in each .pst. So I creaed a single .pst file in a shared directory and
setup outlook to use this for two accounts. We use rules to move the email
from the inbox to our own folders. This works, however, now we get double
entries in this .pst file, since when we each check the POP3 mail server, it
doesn't realize that we already have the mail in our folders and downloads
another copy. How is email flagged as already downloaded? Is this done by the
client or on the server? Is this something that Outlook 2003 can control?
Thanks.
