Incoming e-mails going to everyones e-mail account

I am running OfficeXP on a WindowsXP computer. I have set
everyone in my family up with their own profile to log-on
to our system. I then went into outlook for each profile
and set-up incoming\outgoing mail for each e-mail address,
in their profile so they can manage their own mail
accounts. For some reason all incoming mail can be seen
and read from everyone's mail account profile. And if I
delete mail it deletes from all profiles. It seems to be
putting all mail in a community inbox. What do I need to
do to separate mail accounts?
Thank You,
Deborah

Are your email addresses truly individual, or are they aliases of the one
username?
 
The accounts are individual sub-accounts from one main
road runner account. I have to connect to the same pop and
smtp servers to send and receive mail, but they are
different e-mail addresses and passwords for each sub-
account. RR allows you have 8 different e-mail accounts.
They shouldn't be aliases. They worked separetly when I
used outlook 2000.
Thanks,
Deborah

You have to reference a separate PST (Personal Folders) file in each
profile. Place it under each person's login path (i.e., C:\Documents and
Settings\{username}) on the system. Set the option to ask which profile to
use when starting Outlook.

All of it? You can create profiles in Control Panel using the Mail applet.
You can create PST files using Outlook (File>New>Personal Folders File or
File>New>Outlook Data File depending on your version of Outlook).

Use Help in Outlook for a lot of information.
