how to change default location of IMAP files

[Guest]

I jsut created a new IMAP account, and by default it placed the PST files in

C:\Documents and Settings\EnderW\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook

How do i change that so that the location is elsewhere? For my POP account i
can place the PST file on an encrypted drive.

1) Create the new IMAP account as normal (the PST file will be created
in the default location)

2) Stop Outlook

3) Open Control Panal, Click Mail, Click Data Files and verify that the
newly created IMAP PST file is pointing to the default loacation.

4) Leave this panel open - we're coming back.

5) Move the IMAP PST file to the desired location.

6)Back at the open mail panel (step 4) double click the IMAP PST file
(it still shows the default location.)

7) A pop up will occur saying the file cannot be found and allowing you
to point to the location it was moved to.

8) Close the Control Panel Mail panels.

9) Restart Outlook.

10) The IMAP PST file will remain where you put it and Outlook is happy.
