Default Switching users and email

I have Windows XP and can switch users with no problem. However, when I open
email (Outlook Express) under the new user, I cannot access the Shared Folder
of addresses in the Outlook Express Address Book of the original user (the
one I switched from.) If I stay under the original user (not switching) and
simply change identities through Outlook Express, I can access the Shared
Folder belonging to the prior identity.

I want to be able to switch users AND access the Shared Folder of addresses
from the other user's address book. Can anyone help? Thanks.
