Outlook Mail - Need to access from 2 PCs

[Mark McDonough]

I have a notebook and a desktop PC. My mail account and .pst file is located
on the notebook. Both PCs are on a wireless network.

What I would like to do is be able to access my outlook mail from both PCs.
How do I do this? Presumably there would need to be some sort of
synchronizing to take place such that email sent or received on one PC is
viewable on the other PC.

Do I have to put my email in a public folder? In any event, my public
folders do not operate across the network - only within the one PC and
provides access to other users of that PC only.

Is there a way that I can make my public folders viewable from each PC. ie
put a file in a public folder on one PC and see it in the public folders on
the other PC?

Also, Google Groups is your friend. I posted this back in 2005:

If they are two stand alone machines and no exchange server and you have
access to your email on the web.

Set both machines to pull the mail, BUT check the "Leave on Server" option
and every time you open either outlook it will oull the mail. It is a little
clunky, but will do what you need with additional hardware or software.

You will have to the web mail and clean it out.

Good luck

Or try mailtofile (www.mailtofile.com) to file your email on a public
directory. Every email is saved as a seperate msg file, and can be
opened if this folder can be accessed from both computers.

Hi

Try http://www.syncpst.com/

A great program, that syncs all content between two PST-files.
