Sharing Outlook files between XP users

I may be missing something simple here, but....

I have a machine running XP and Office XP which is shared
by four different users.
The default appears to be that each user signs on and can
run Outlook, but the mail files are all different depending
upon the user that i slogged in.

Not a problem, except that we ALL access / monitor ALL
accounts on the machine.

This means that if userA logs in and downloads mail one
day, userB will not see that mail when he next logs in
(unless mail is left on the server - NOT IDEAL).

QUESTION : Is there any way to have a single mail file that
is shared between all users?
residing in 'Documents & Setting\All Users\My Documents'
for instance.

Any help would be appreciated.

Craig..
 
Or... you could just set Outlook to leave a copy of the message on the
server for each person.

Maybe add the box "remove from server when deleted"??

You'd need to put a .PST file in a location accessible by all users of the
operating system, and point each user's Outlook profile to that same .PST
file.
