Hi all,

I am not sure if this is possible at all, but I thought I would throw it out here to see if anyone has done this before.

I have a machine on my shopfloor that is always logged on as the same user. Certain people on the floor need to have access to outlook so that they can read specific messages sent out to them. Is it possible to setup outlook and then restrict it's access with a password or something, so that they can get access to it??

The reason I can't have them log off and back is that it is running a critical application on it.

Thanks for any input.

As far as I know outlook can be configured to be used by several different users, no matter who is logged to the actual desktop at that moment.
With outlook express, do the following:
File> Identities> Manage Identities.

From this menu you can create different users who can keep different acounts.

Marcos.
