841.0. "how can a client see another clients mail folders?" by NQOS01::nqsrv247.nqo.dec.com::Workbench () Tue Jan 28 1997 05:47

	i have a laptop and a desktop, both running exchange client.
	they are both ethernetted together.  they are part of the
	same workgroup.  neither is a server.

	i want to have a common exchange folder between the two, or a 
	folder on one that the other can see.

	how do i do it?

	i know they can both see the server, but since the server is
	connected via a 28.8kbps modem, i want to move email down
	to one of my clients and know that i can share it with the
	other without going slowly back up to client each time.

	teamlinks allowed me to mount a remote drawer on any other
	system.  how do i do this with exchange?

	thanks,
	jim.

    Create a public folder, with only the two users having permissions to
    access them.

	You could also to this another way..

	As your two systems are networked together, you could have a profile
	on each machine pointing to the same .PST file, as long as you can
	successfully share it of course.

	That way, no matter which system you were using, you would be looking
	at the same information.

	You can also use the briefcase to store the .PST file so that the
	laptop for example, would still show all information if it was 
	removed from the network.

841.3Personal folder in both PCs pointing to same locationOGOPW1::16.124.40.198::DiazTue Jan 28 1997 21:209
I may not fully understand your question, but if your postoffice is on the 
network, (either on the Exchange server of a network drive) you can access it with 
any PC once the network validates your user name and password.

My setup: I have a personal share on the network that I access as a netowrk drive 
"M". I have created my personal folder in my work and home PCs pointing to that 
drive M and same subdirectory, and I can access my stored mail from both places.
