IPAQ 2410 - Pocket Outlook Can't Distinguish File Store Fr..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

In Pocket Outlook, when you check the box "Store Attachments On
Storage Card" and you have an SD card installed, it's supposed to put
the attachment folders on the SD Card, Right?

Not the case on my new 2410; it puts the files in *iPAQ File Store*. A
meager 20mb, as apposed to the 512mb SD chip I have installed. I can't
seem to figure out a way to redirect these folders to the proper
location.

Any suggestions? A registry setting perhaps?

Assistance appreciated.

Thanks, I'll give HP a call and then go on a quest for that registry
key.
