How can I let my family use the same Inbox under different use
Installed OL once for all users. But I do have five administrator's accounts,
instead of administrator's rights. That is most probably the reason. Can you
point me to links about how to set the other accounts over to a limited user,
while granting them administrator's rights?

If you have the PC set up with multiple logons point each users OL profile
to the same pst.
It seems like you have installed OL for each user, rather than all users.
I hope also you mean 5 users with administrative rights, rather than 5
administrator accounts, if the latter is the case you are setting up
problems.

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?

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.
