Have we found a tool to put all messages to the Storage card instead ??
I use Memmaid, and I believe memmaid can change the path where messages are stored.

How do I email an attachment w/Tilt using gmail and the regular email app that comes w/the Tilt. I see were i can attach a pic, but it goes to the device my pictures folder, i can't see were to get into the storage card folder, i see were you can select all folders and it brings up everything on teh device, but nothing on the storage card, the programs files is empty on all folders too, can you not attach from the storage card w/the outlook email? Also is there a way to make a my documents folder on the device that has a path to the storage card?
I was able to do this no problem on my 8525. There are several registry settings that allow you to change the location of your My Documents, E-mail messages, and attachments to the Storage Card instead of internal memory. The is crucial for me as I store a ton of e-mail with large attachments on my phone. (None of it security sensitive mind you.)
The problem I'm finding with the Tilt, is that it reads the registry settings BEFORE it recognizes the Storage Card! So what ends up happening is it created a folder in internal memory called Storage Card and calls the actual storage card, Storage Card2 !!! I can remove the storage card, and delete the Storage Card directory, turn phone on and re-insert the Storage Card and it keeps doing the same thing!
I know there
Help!
Here's the setting in case anyone is interested:
Change the location of My Documents
Documents are opened in and saved to the device's internal storage by default. You can change this location to, for example, your Storage Card:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\FileSyncPath = "\Storage Card\My Documents" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To return to the original location:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\FileSyncPath = "\My Documents" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
Change the location of email and attachments
When reading and sending email in Pocket Outlook, emails and their attachments are saved in the device's internal storage by default. You can change this location to, for example, your Storage Card:
HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings\PropertyPath = "\Storage Card\Mail" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MAPI\AttachPath = "\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To return to the original location:
Just simply delete these Registry settings (since neither is included by default).
I found the problem after searching and searching the net in some obscure post about changing the storage locations on a WM5 phone.
On some devices, the way the phone boots, the Messaging plugin for the Today screen loads before the storage card is recognized. This appears to be the case with my Tilt. (BTW I upgraded to latest ROM 1.6x to see if that helped - didn't) If I disable the Message plugin in the Today settings, everything works.
So now I need to decide if it is more important to store my mail on my card or have the messaging plugin. I suppose I can use 3rd part software for displaying messaging info on my Today screen?

So, If I make the registry changes for email that you mentioned and then use Spb Mobile Shell (or HTC Home) to display messaging info on the Today Screen, I can have my emails saved to the storage card automatically?
Can a program like Total Commander allow me to create registry entries, or only edit them?
Thanks
Please disregard.
On my tilt, i'm trying to get my outlook items to save to my storage card instead of the device storage, since the device only comes w/120ish mb, but i cant figure out how to do this? everytime i connect to active sync and it loads up my outlook items it drains my device mem, and i want to stop that by having the items use my storage card mem. any help on this? thx
edit: i'm trying to get the all emails to use the storage card, instead of the device storage.
bump, anyone able to help me w/this?
Hope this is not a stupid question?
I use my diamond for work and on my S730 i had a cab file that used my Storage Card instead of the phone to store mail. I used this cab file on the diamond but does not work. Does anyone know how to use the internal storage instead of the phone for my mail
Thanks
Brian
in the mail settings you can choose to let attachments of e-mails be stored in the internal storage. The mail itself can't be stored on the internal storage, but i don't see the point of that (because a email is about 1/2 kb most of the time.
Thanks for the reply. The reason i like to save all to the storage card is i had the whole 2gb mailbox on my 4gb card on my S730 phone. We do not currenly have exchange 2007 and i can not use the search option. As i am out alot around our 4 sites its a pain if i need an email that is not stored on my phone as on the road alot. That is why i had that cab file that changed the settings some how so it stored all emails and attachments on my old card. I am sure someone will release a hack to do the same on the Diamond
Thanks
Brian

Yes it can...the (PropertyPath) setting is just located in a different registry setting.
However, I've tried it and immediately ended up getting the common "Storage Card2 issue", a known issue with this trick.
So I've reverted back to the default setting. But you're right that just the emails aren't all that big to begin with.
I would'nt encourage you to put 2 gig of e-mails on your phone. Isn't it smarter to just get the last few days of mail via your phone and if you need a older mail you use the webinterface of your e-mail provider? (on your phone with opera ofcourse)
My main concern is to move my contacts from Nokia N95 8gb (Symbian) to Galaxy Note. I do not want to do Google sync as there's lot of contacts and email ids already in my Gmail account. I don't want to mix it up. I don't have an outlook account as well. Please tell me a way out.
Is there any solution for transferring messages, calendar and notes as well? I don't mind doing this manually but contacts are difficult. Thank you.
Contact is easiest
First open contacts in symbian, option mark all - copy to memory card
Now copy other/contacts folder from your memory card n put in memory card of android
Open contact in android - option(menu) - import/export - import from SD card - select multifiles from available option - and GO
there is google calender sync application available for Symbian, backed up, then download in android by sync
same way a application is available for SMS backup to gmail for android, i forget name right now

wow.. that was easy. i never knew there was an option called "copy to memory card" in symbian. very smooth and all details gets copied, not just the first number in a contact.
google calendar is a good option. although i thought of copying manually just this months' appointments and anniversaries. if you sync then even the old 3 or 4 year old entries get copied which is of no use.
i couldn't find any google sms backup. but i did find another excellent alternative. first follow the steps in this link:
http://www.simail.si/nokia2androidsms/
after that use this application from the following link to complete the transfer
http://android.riteshsahu.com/apps/sms-backup-restore
it has all instructions. very useful if you collect huge amount of sms and don't want to let go.
copying notes, i guess normal Bluetooth transfers would do.
thanks doc
For calender since b4 android i switched to google, just reason is it remind you with sms too, so nothing like backup needed ne more. Once make entry on pc, n forget
