Outlook PST File Location

[Guest]

I can VPN into my computer at work from home (Win2K3, WinXP,SP2;
Office2K3,SP1). Unbeknownst to me is that when I do VPN and directly open my
Outlook 2003 app on my home laptop, it dumps some if not ALL of my email from
work onto my laptop hard drive. That wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have a 40
Gig HD with 10 Gigs to spare. This was over a year ago. So a month ago, I
bought an external HD and remembered this phenomenon. I'd lilke to try the
VPN/Outlook session dump again but redirect it to the external HD. Could some
help explain to me what file/target on my HD that the Outlook app refers to
so that I can either move that target file (PST?) my office PC dumps to onto
my new external HD or redirect my home laptop's Outlook app to point to a new
empty folder (I create) on the external HD. I have 'cache mode' enabled on my
office PC Outlook. Thank you in advance!!
