Sharing Calendar and contacts.

[Guest]

My wife and I have two seperate pop 3 email accounts. We
currently log onto our computer under different users in
win xp. Her email goes to her outlook under personal
inbox and mine the same. We want to be able to sink our
pocket pc's to the same calendar and contacts. Is this
possible?

Perhaps. Using one of your accounts, create a new PST in a shared area
(Shared Documents, for example). Make it the default delivery location.
Keep your private PST from your Windows profile attached in Outlook. In the
other Windows account, open the shared PST and make it the default delivery
location for that person as well, keeping the private PST attached. Create
a rule in each account that will move mail received by your individual
addresses to that person's private Inbox (if you wish to keep your mail
hidden from the other account). Since you will both be using the same PST
for everything but mail, synching will happen to the common Calendar and
Contacts (and the other common folders, if you've set up your synch tool to
reference them).
