I did a search and found a lot of information that is close, but no
answer to my exact question.

We have a desktop and laptop. I've already got the laptop setup to use
the .pst on the desktop. I know only one PC can use the file at time,
and that is fine. The problem is that the email doubles up in the
inbox. I get email when I use Outlook on the desktop, and then again
when I switch over to the laptop. I know the easy solution is to turn
off the 'leave message on server' option, but I don't want to do that.
My wife needs to also be able to access the email on the web and if it
is deleted immediatly from the server, she won't be able to see it
during the day. Is there a way share the .pst, receive emails using
either PC without doubling, and leave a copy on the server?
 
hi, I was looking to solve same problem with my computers, one desktop and one laptop I wanted to share same outlook pst file between 2 computers, and yes it is possible there is a program called OsaSync http://www.vaita.com/index.asp at first I didn't think much of it, but I did try and it works with outlook , 2 computers sharing the same pst file constantly in sync automatically. I was so happy with the program so I did promise to the tech support that I will let people know about it, so here I am
if you have any questions I will be happy to answer.
thank you

John
