In 'Options' / 'Preferences' / 'System' / 'Mail directory' you can set the base path to your message base, which should be finally located at the (extended) data partition. If both installations are set to the same path as 'Mail directory' everything should be fine. The only thing you can't share within a dual boot environment are all settings done in registry. I.e. settings like Font, date format settings, etc ... you'll have to set up TB! once, than export the registry branch of TB! and import this one into the other OS for having your account's being recognized (The name and [if different from default] account dir are stored in registry, account data itself not).
