I set up a separate user logon for my wife. However, I
would like us to both look at the same email inbox when
signing into outlook axpress. Currently, she does not
see the same inbox that I do. Any quick answers here
that I missed??

Hi Louis,

Log into one account, open OE, click tools/options/maintenance tab/store
folder. Move this folder to a location that can be accessed by both
accounts. Close up, log off and log on to the other profile. Repeat the
steps for this account, only this time selecting the folder that was
previously created. This should resolve it.

*Important* Do not forget to turn off OE before switching accounts, or use
fast-user switching with OE active. If you do, there is a good chance the
store folder will get corrupted and you will lose whatever is in there.
