Hi,

From what i understood, you need to share your email files with the
different users of the same computer.
Now, if the access is purely related to emails, you could go ahead and
change the email account settings in Outlook so that the other users with
their Outlook configured for the same account could download the emails off
the server.

Goto Tools> Email ACcounts> View or change email accounts> Change> More
SEttings> Advanced> Leave copy of message on the server.

Or,

You could go ahead and share the pst file (Outlook data file) within the
users in a shared location and all the 3 users access the pst file from the
common location.
You could create a new pst file through Outlook by going under File> New>
Outlook Datafile and create the file on a common location like the C:\ Drive.

You could ask the users to access the pst file by going under File> Open?
Outlook Datafile and browse through the same location to access the shared
pst file.

Also, if you need to change the default email delivery location in all the 3
users to the common pst file, you could go under Tools> Email ACcounts> View
or change email accounts> and change the default email delivery location to
the shared pst file.

Hope this helps you out.

Thanks Mittu ...Yes, this is just me actual configuration. The three
users sharing the .pst file and the default mail delivery location to
this shared .pst, too we have the "Leave copy of message on the server"
for our security rules.

But the problem we're, is that when user(1) send/receive messages, for
example downloads 20 emails from mailServer, (this mails are rigth
accesible from all the users), but if in a second time other user(2),
or user(3) executes send/receive, the outlook or mailServer (i don't
know) interprets user(2) o user(3) like a new "location/user/machine"
and syscronices messages downloading again the mesages dowloaded
previous by user(1).

Can I do without download the same messages three times ???

(without put off the "leave copy of message on server option")

Thanks

Hi,

If the common pst file is the default email delivery location for all 3
users of the same computer, there is less chance of duplication of emails for
any user.
So, you need to make sure that the common pst file is the default email
folder in all the 3 users.
However, sharing pst files are least recommended, but this setup might
actually work out.

Thanks,
