Synchronizing, HELP!!!

[MMM]

Hello!

We had a system set up in the office so that everytime a
new contact was added to the "main" pc, it would generate
email messages for everyone in the office to synchronize
their contacts, that is add the new contacts. I got a new
pc and the system is no longer working in this new
computer, I receive the updating email messages from
the "main" computer but my outlook doen't process them
automatically as it did before. Can somebody tell me what
feature is that and where do I have to set it up?

Thanks in advance!!!

What version of Outlook

If your new computer has OfficeXP or Office 2003 installed, your version of Outlook is not compatible
with the feature the other users are using. This feature is known as Net Folders and is only found in
Outlook 98 and Outlook 2000.

If you find that you have Outlook 2000, use the following articles to set it up:
