one user, two profiles (business/home), how to share calendar, etc?

[A Toczko]

I must use my home computer for both personal and business, each function
having its own email address. I set up a personal profile and a business
profile, but would like to share calendars, todos, and notes between the two
profiles. Contacts could be shared also, not important either way, but I
definitely want to keep email and personal folders separate. Can this be
done? I don't want to have to use different windows logons. TIA.

I would recommend using a single profile and rules that separate the
messages as they come it, placing the business mail in its own folder in the
main PST or in a separate PST. There's no way to share all but the mail
folders.

I would prefer to use one profile, but I must ensure that I always reply to
business contacts with my business email, and personal contacts with
personal email address. Before going to profiles, I had one address set as
the default email address, and had to manually switch the 'from' email
address when I didn't want to use the default. Is there a way to *ensure*
that I don't make an error? It is so easy to hit that send button,
forgetting to check which account is being used.

Outlook is supposed to reply using the same account to which the message was
sent, but posts I've read here indicates whether or not that works correctly
depends on the version of Outlook.

Nothing beats personal discipline.

I'm using Outlook 2003, and my experience is that it replies using the
default account, which can be different than the acount to which the message
was sent.
