Accessing Outlook from network computers
 

Hi
I have a small network, 3 desktops and 2 laptops. One of the desktops is running Vista Home Premium, the others are all on XP Home - apart from one of the laptops which is a Mac.

Currently we all access email via Outlook on the PC with Vista set up in separate user areas. That is, each of us log on to our area and receive only our own emails in Outlook.

We would like to be able to access our own Outlook, and use the calendars etc, from any of the PCs on the network, as we do at work.

Is the only way of doing this by installing MS Exchange Server?

If so, how hard is it to set up?

Could anyone point me at 'simple' instructions?

Thanks

Hi Maliplex,

have a look on this sites for alternatives to an Exchange Server:

Outlook sharing solutions:
http://www.publicshareware.com/publi...scription.html
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/share.htm

Article about "sharing your Outlook information (by Eric Legault)"
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...477571033.aspx

Office Marketplace Outlook messaging tools:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ma...719621033.aspx

Maybe it helps.
