Outlook Express question

[Mike S]

Please help, this is the situation:
I have a small home LAN with 2 computers, both running Windows XP
Professional. I have Outlook Express installed on computer A, and of
course, it has all my settings and address book, etc., exactly the way
I want it, but what I want to be able to do is to use Outlook Express
on computer B so that my settings (address book, old emails, etc.)
appear exactly the same way when I run Outlook Express on Computer B
in essence, I want the databases of In-box, out-box, addresses, etc,
to be "in synch" on both computers. I have found information
explaining this when a server is involved, but we dont' have a server,
just 2 workstation Windows XP Professional-equipped PCs. I have a
feeling that this can be done, because it seems to be a common-sense
thing, but I am a newbie, and stuck. Any help would be appreciated,
Mike

Ask in an Internet Explorer news group - OE is not a part of Office but
rather Internet Explorer. Outlook is from Microsoft Office, which this
group supports.

You can also find some good information on OE at http://www.tomsterdam.com
