move local folders to network drive

I need to share local folder emails between two different machines.

Is it possible to move existing local folders from my personal machine to a shared network drive, such that more than one user can access the local folders.

Is this possible?

YES :) Here is some info on Local Folders, where it is in Profile Folder and how to move to new location.

To see Profile Folders and files you may need to make hidden files and folders visible:

To quickly access Profile Folders: Help > Troubleshooting Information click on 'Show folders' button 

a new window opens showing Profile Folders.

Click on 'Mail' folder to see 'Local Folders.

Before moving any folders etc, make sure you have exited/closed Thunderbird first.
