Microsoft doesn't officially support the use of personal folder files across
a network connection. However you will find that many do it every day and
it works. Just have to accept some limitations and gotchas...

1) Only 1 machine can have the file open at a time.

2) If something happens to the network connection or the remove machine is
power off while a remote machine has the file open, file will have minor
corruption and will require the running of the inbox repair tool.
