Mobility Site - View Single Post - Help ! Cannot save attachment in mail in outlook

Here are my thoughts:

Can you open the attachment? In other words is the attachment really there!

Try telling Pocket Outlook (PO) to save all attachments to your SD card if you have one. (go to - on your X30's PO - tools, options, storage.....).

Be very careful when playing around with synching Outlook with your PPC's PO, it can totally screw up your PST file.

ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR OUTLOOK PST FILE BEFORE playing around.

I have over 50 megs of attachments on my SD, multiple email accounts and my X30 works like a dream.

Many other PDAs can get very confused if you store your email attachments on external storage (e.g. SD) and then for some reason they can't see this storage repository for the email attchments (e.g. you remove the SD card).

The X30 seems to be quite resilient in this respect, despite stressing it.

Hope this helps!
