using Internal Storage for mail - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

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

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

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)

K-Jam / Wizard / VARIO - Memory Problem

I bought a 2gig memory card for my phone.. but I can't see anyway to make it store email on the memory card.
There is an option to store attachments on the memory card but not the emails themselves.
The phone has such a poxy in built memory that after installing programs and contacts etc. there is only 5-6mb left... this quickly gets clogged up to the point where in coming SMS, emails and new contacts can't be stored.
So I have a great situation of 2gig of memory, that is semi useless and an OS that doesn't seem to have been designed to integrate extra memory properly into the daily functions of the phone...
Anyone got any clues or addon softwares that might help ?
ALSO... was wondering if anyone knows a way to wipe the tmobile rom off the VARIO and install a plain one or K-Jam rom.... ?

As has also been pointed out in the Mailer Roundup, you can NOT store Messaging POP3/IMAP e-mail on storage cards, only Outlook-synced mails (the latter with hacks).
That is, use third-party mailer apps: FlexMail 2007, Qmail etc. Read the Mailer Roundup for more info.

ActiveSync with Exchange server

Hi all,
I hope it is not very noob question and It is not somewhere here writen (was cheking just threads title). I have brand new S730 with 2GB card. I would like to setup to download all my emails with all attachments to my device. Problem is my MBX size at exchange server is almost 250MB and device has 100MB free. Any tool or guide how to setup to save MBX to StorageCard? Or will phone do it aumatically. I didn't tried it.
Its not possible with a smartphone to store your mail and attachments on your SD card. Everything goes into pim.vol on the route of your device.
not right. The following registry items do the trick:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Settings]
"AttachPath"="\\Storage Card\\Inbox\\Attachments"
"PropertyPath"="\\Storage Card\\Inbox"
owned!!!!!
You can also search your mailbox by using search server.

Can't store e-mail on Storage Card! Could on 8525

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.

Syncing Emails

Hi, I was just wondering if you know how to change the sync folder for emails to the internal storage?
as i have alot of emails, the phone memory isnt big enough and I cant find a way to change the root folder so, that it syncs all emails automatically to the internal storage driver?
any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!
come on people no one knows any solutions at all??
I assume you are saving attatchments to internal storage?
Messaging -> Options -> Storage
You must have a massive amount of emails to have space issues, its just plain text after all.
not just attachments, i want the emails to be also in the internal drive, because when I use the active sync from windows it just puts them into the phone memory where there isnt enough space for it all.
