Received emails go to all mailboxes

On Windows XP Pro and Outlook 2002 with Comcast cable, when an email comes in
it ends up in all the inboxes even though they are in different accounts with
diferent passwords. So an email sent to me ends up in my wifes and daughters
inbox as well as mine. How can I get the emails to land in the correct inbox
only?

Are you all using the same PST?

Thanks for the reply Brian - We very well could be. How do I check if that
is the case? If it is, how do I create new PST's for each user?

Ask Outlook: File>Data File Management. This will show what PST(s) Outlook
currently has open.

File>New>Outlook Data File. You all should have your own mail profiles,
too. Control Panel>User Accounts>Mail>Show Profiles should list them. If
there's only one, each user should create his or her own. Each user should
have his or her own Windows login as well.
