Using Outlook Express 6, is there a way to share 1 mailbox on a network of 2
computers? I have tried to point the 2nd computer to the 1st computer
mailbox, but that doesn't work (unless I'm doing it wrong). I imagine
there's a simple way to do this. Is it possible? Can someone explain? Much
appreciated. Todd

You can't unfortunately. OE is not designed for that. Have a look here:

BTW, please note:
This newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number. Good luck!
