Default Is it possible to share a .pst file?

I need to offer 6 users access to a Personal Folder (.pst) file of archived
user email. I'd rather not make a copy for each user and somehow share the
single file somehow. I haven't been able to share a .pst file in my test lab.
Is this possible?

While DL is correct, there may be other alternatives. See

Thanks for the links. This will help us make a decision. We're at the point
now where we may consider keeping the user's mailbox on the Exchange server
and allow the users to attach it to their Outlook for viewing. I've just got
to figure out a way to keep mail from coming into it.

I'm not sure what youre saying here. Mail SHOULD come into the Exchange
mailbox.
