I have a stand alone W98 System with a backup device that I use for network backup. 8 machines are connected and all use Outlook 97 with modems for internet access.

Is there any way I can use the stand alone system with Outlook 97 to set up a simple intranet (sending messages to the users of the network) without using MS Exchange Server.

It would be great to send information across the network as the machines are spread across three floors.

If I'm not explaining myself properly please tell me.

Thanks in advance for any help.
