Sharing a PST file

[Nicolas Macarez]

Hi You All,
I have a peer-to-peer architecture with five desktops ruuning Windows XP (no
server of any kind) . Each desktop uses the Microsoft Outlook client
(Outlook XP or Outlook 2003) and I want to make them share the messages and
the contacts of one address mail, e.g. (e-mail address removed).
I know you can make Outlook open one the PST file located on another
machine. The problem is that you can't open two desktops at the same time on
the same PST file: the first one needs to close Outlook to enable the second
one to be able to open Outlook. Which is not bearable in my case.
My question is : Is there a workaround, or maybe a third part tool
(freeware or commercial) to solve this issue?

Help greatly appreciated.
Nicolas
