Can I use a network location as a store folder for Windows Live Mail 2011?
In previous versions it wasn't possible, but I would like to know if it's possible in 2011?

I found no option to change the store folder in Windows Live Mail 2011. You can ask here: http://windowslivehelp.com/ about Windows Live product questions.

The option to relocate store folders in Windows Live Mail 2011 is well-hidden. Select the left menu, options, mail, advanced, maintenance, store folder. You can browse for locations. I'm wondering if it will allow either a network share or a mapped drive. I don't have a suitable shared location or I would try it myself. I read elsewhere that Windows 7 supports symbolic links which can be on a network share. I wonder if that would fool WLM? Thanks for the link to windows live help. I will check it out and let you know if I find anything.

"Not possible"? That's all? I almost felt like an Apple user on this one! :D But in fact, after browsing the web I really don't get why something so simple seems to be "not possible"... I just want to keep my Windows Live Mail storage folder in another pc, with more space in drive, inside my personal basic 2 pc network... and without some server farm solution or extra cheap/expensive tools/apps. So... thanks when someone will explain how to solve this in a normal way ;)
