My husband and I have set up seperate profiles with
Windows XP Pro and now we are trying to access our email
from Outlook Express 6. The problem is that only one of
us recieves emails at a time and both profiles are set up
to the same email address. Out folders and contacts were
all put on his email and mine is empty. Is there a way
to access our email on outlook express 6 when we have
seperate profiels or do I have to go back to his silly
backdrops and wierd screen savers combine back into one?

Tools>Options>Maintenance>Store Folder and set the store folder the same for
both accounts to the one which 'is' getting mail.

BTW unlike Outlook, you can move it where you want, which means you can back
it up e.g. with My Documents.
