Is there any way to view the Outlook Express e-mail files (*.dbx) on one
computer from another inbox, outbox, etc.? I basically want to set up one
common email account that can be used from either computer.

I tried setting Share permission on the folder where the .DBX files are.
And I tried setting the new Identity, and changing the Store Location (via
the Maintenance tab), the OK button doesn't light up to allow it to be
selected.

The "source" .DBX files are on an XP machine using OE6. I want to view
and
access them from my WinME with OE55. The WinME is configured as ICS Host
providing the Dialup Internet share.
