I have set up a contacts folder to be shared by 2 computers. The "Owner" has sent the invitation to the "Computer2" with editor rights. The e-mail addresses are ALL setup with send using Outlook Rich Text. The invite is sent. the invite is accepted.
The "Owner" then sends 47 folder updates to "Computer2" who does not recieve them !

I have stopped sharing, re-setup sharing and now am at a loss

Any ideas?

( Computer 2 happily shares a calender with another computer on the network (peerto peer).

Thanks Mohamed,
I've done it all by the book. The problem appears to be with the computer that hosts the pst folder. Despite enabling "send mail using Outlook Rich text format... this computer refuses to share... the updates are sent... but never recieved by the other computers.

Could this be a Windows Me problem?
