If each user has his own Windows login, he should also have his own .PST
file in his Windows profile, and of course each user should only have
his own e-mail account listed in Tools | Accounts. What's probably
happening is that all accounts are still sharing one .PST file and the
other e-mail accounts haven't been configured properly. You'll need to
do the following:
1) Log into Windows as User #1. Close Outlook (if it opens on Windows
startup). Go into Windows Explorer and search for the .PST file --
you'll need to enable searching in hidden and system folders to find it.
When you do, move it into User #1's profile so that the other users
don't have access to it. Now reopen Outlook. It will complain it can't
find the .PST file -- point it to the new location. When that's all
set, go into Tools | Accounts and make sure only User #1's account
appears there. Close Outlook and log out of Windows.
2) Log into Windows as User #2. When you open Outlook, it will again
complain it can't find the .PST file. Instead of pointing it to an
existing file, let it create a new one. When that's done, go to Tools |
Accounts and make sure only User #2's account appears. Close Outlook
and log out of Windows.
3) Repeat step 2 for User #3.
I hope I haven't left out anything, but this is basically what needs to
be done. If there is any information in the original .PST that needs to
go to the other users, it can be exported to other .PST files created in
folders accessible to all users, and then those users can open the .PST
files in Outlook using File | Open. If you run into any problems,
please post back.
