| 146649 | 2003-05-23 00:33:00 | Good Day! I am not sure if this was tackled before on this site. We have WinXP Pro at home with atleast 3 users on the PC... all of which share the same Outlook Express Mailboxes & Address Books. I managed to change the registry entries to cater for this. However.... Is there a way that Microsoft Outlook Express can share the same message rules for ALL 3 users? Whenever I set-up one message rule on the admin user, I have to do a lot of work to populate the same message rule to the rest of the users. Is there a way to make this task easier? Or can you tell me which file or Registry item to tweek? |

In OE, Click Tools -Options Click on the Maintenance Tab Click on OE Store Folder Specify the new folder Do the same for all users! I dont know of message rules sorry, Im not too sure how possible it is, Ive never been able to do it myself :( Hope that helps with the message sharing though :-) Cheers Chill. |
