The short question:

Is there a way to allow multiple users to have a PST
file open at the same time? Where one user adds an
email the other users will see this new information?

Thanks.

I just noticed there's Exchange server 2003. Why use PST when you have an
Exchange server?

That was part of the longer question.

I'd like to be able to archive job specific information
into PST files located in the respective job folder so
anyone who works on the job can have access to
the correspondence. But if more than one person
can't have the PST file open there is no point.

PST isn't designed for sharing.

Exchange Public Folder may be the answer.

That crossed my mind, just have investigated yet.
Some users are difficult to deal with, so anything
"new" is going to be a royal pain for me.

Hi John,

Who say this? We did not find a Microsoft website with information that it
is not recommended to develop a Store provider with PST files as central
stores.

So, put them in public folders.

I've not done much with public folders other than
making use of company contacts. The PST approach
would be easy since I can store each project's data
in a specific project folder structure and all data would
get archived to DVD when the time comes.

Can I control where the public folder data is stored
on a per-project basis?
