Default How can I let my family use the same Inbox under different use

Thanks again for the help. I actually had to change the default pst in
outlook first, and then delete the personal pst from the configuration panel.

What hasn't worked yet is to use the same profile over all the users. The
profile I've made under one user doesn't show up in the configuration panel
of other users. If I can get this, then I think I'm all the way home. I've
fished around in the local settings and application settings to try to copy a
profile, but that hasn't worked.

Any tips on how to get a profile made under one user visible to the others?

With OL closed, you used the mail applet in the control panel to add the
pst, set it as default and perhaps removed any other pst?
There are no rules set up in this profile/pst?

Thanks for your reply. It's helped some, but I've still got this problem:
I have added the pst which is used under my user to the other user, but

this
does not, unfortunately, include the use of the Inbox. Each user maintains
his/her own Inbox, which is again not what I want. How can I get us all to
use the same Inbox? or do I need to set Rules to ignore the standard Inbox
for incoming email?

If you are really wanting all users to share the same data you have to

set
OL to the same pst (data file)
Profiles are designed so that each user's data is seperate. It would

appear
you only require a single profile

Each user on my computer ( 5 adminsitrators) has his/her own inbox.

What
we
want is one common inbox for our family's e-mail. I can't seem to get

this
to
work under profiles. How do I do this in Outlook? I'm running XP Home

with
Office 2003.
