My default delivery location is a PST file, on my data drive, for my default
POP3 account. It's also listed as the default data file.
All that is shown for my Connector file in terms of a location is "Not
available." That's apparently normal:

However, the OST for it is located in the expected place:
Appdata/Local/Microsoft/Outlook section of my profile.
I expected Connector to have more configuration, but there's essentially
nothing to it.
