After I asked the question I figured out why it kept disappearing. Once you
change it on someone else's computer it bumps off the last person's setting
on their computer since this is the PUBLIC FOLDER.

You'd have to create a new activity group for each person, not edit an existing one.

Do you have any suggestions of how we can see e-mail history for a public
contact? This would be e-mails from different people's computer but would
all have the same contact as the common denominator.

One solution would be to set up a public folder to hold mail messages and have everyone cc: it.
