Hi all,
Not sure if anyone saw this:
http://www.elgix.com/products/index.htm
It looks like a patch to change the location for email storage location (not attachments but the actual emails). Patch says it's for the MPx but do you guys think it will work work with the Magician? Anyone brave enough to give it a try?
Using Pocket Outlook Storage patch on Magician.
Hi All,
First of all, we have NOT tested this patch on any device other than the MPx. Generally speaking the patch should work on any device running PPC 2003/SE, but there is one issue. The MPx has 16Mb of built-in flash memory called ResidentFlash. What we've done is we've hard-coded the path to this ResidentFlash in the program, and you can select where you want your Outlook data -- either in the internal memory, the storage card (if one is available), or in the ResidentFlash (which won't be available on the Magician). This means that it should be possible to use the storage card, but you'll still see the ResidentFlash option, which won't work. If you install this on any device other than an MPx, do NOT select ResidentFlash. We might update the control panel applet to remove the ResidentFlash option when it's not available.
Please send mail to [email protected] if you have any questions.
Enjoy,
-- Eldad.
Just installed the patch on the magician and it works very well. Right after changing the location of the mails, i just put my whole exchange box on my device !! Now i always have everything with me, thanks for this patch guys !!
thanks for the patch........ works great on my imate jam and love it...... another idea can you make a patch to move the SMS messages to the storage card?! it would be great if it you could....
thank you again
Was just about to ask if there was a hack a registry tweak for this when this patch arrived.
Unfortunately, I can't get it to work on my MDA. After transferring all my emails from internal memory to the storage card, I can no longer read the body of the message. The email still appears in my inbox, but the text is missing.
Fortunately, I just re-transferrd all the emails from the storage card to the internal memoery and everything seems fine again.

I tried this on my O2 Mini (running Anansky's ROM with 27MB storage) and had the same problem. The emails appear in Inbox but the body is empty when i click on them. Moved the email back to Internal Memory and its ok again.
Anyway, it would be really nice if "Storage" is included as an option in addition to the existing "ResidentFlash, Internal Memory, Storage Card". Those using the 27MB storage can move the emails there.
Must soft-reset the device before relocating emails.
jian and patrickquek,
Did you make sure to soft-reset your devices after installing the patch? It sounds like the program was installed, but the device wasn't restarted -- that's exactly what would cause emails to appear blank.
We are preparing another version that uses the "Storage" folder instead of "ResidentFlash". That would work for HTC devices such as the Magician, Blue Angel, etc. This version should be available before the end of the week.

I am lost (
Guys, can you direct me how to move e-mail to storage card, please?
I installed the patch, however cannot find any interface to work with.
I have a JAM.
Thanking you in advance.
noviur,
When you click the Start button, go to Settings, and then click the System tab, do you see an item called "Outlook Storage"? That's where you can control your outlook storage settings. Please let me know if this item is not available on your device.
Thanks,
-- Eldad.
Thank you, ldoogy.
After checking System tab i could not find it mentioned below item, however I did installation to the Card instead of default location - that was the reason why it did not work.
I had to reinstall it and not it works as you said. So thank you and for sure moving SMS files would be really an asset
[/u]
hi ldoogy,
Thanks for coming here and helping us out. Anyways I am having a couple of issues with the app. It seems like I am able to move existing emails from internal memory to storage card and vise versa but like the previous 2 posters above, the contents on the email is missing. The attachments are there but the body text of the email is not showing. Moving it back to internal memory clears that problem. Another issue I am having is that whenever I get a new email, the email is still default to internal memory instead of storage card. I made sure storage card was selected in the app and soft resets has performed. Maybe I misunderstand what the purpose of this app is. Is it app only intend to move existing emails and not new emails coming in? Thanks again for this app and all your help! Looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi All,
Looks like our patch only works on the MPx for now. We've now tested it in-house on a PDA2K and got the same results. The storage redirection mechanism just doesn't work on the HTC devices. We are currently working on a fix for this problem and will hopefully post it in the next few days. I would recommend that you refrain from installing this patch on any HTC devices until we have resolved these issues.
I will post a message once we have a version that works on HTC devices (I expect we'll have one version that will work for both Magician and Blue Angel).
Cheers,
-- Eldad.
The elgix outlook storage icon does appear in my system folder and it seems to have succeeded in moving my messages (took about 9 mins).
There is a (new?) directory on my card called messaging filled with *.mpb files. Am I correct in assuming that these are the message files and that the patch worked fine on my MDA Compact with T-mobile english rom ?
Many thanks,
Martin

Martin, you are correct that the .mpb files are the message files, but moving them is really just the first part of what the patch does. The real purpose of the patch is to redirect file requests from Outlook to the storage card. The problem that most people here seem to be having is that the redirection doesn't work, which results in all of their email messages showing up as empty when viewed from Outlook. For now the solution is to copy the messages back to the internal memory. We're currently trying to figure out why the redirection isn't working.

I also got the same problem of blank emails...
WARNING! BEWARE !!!
ldoogy , thanks for your response.
After running the patch everything seemed fine, but I then realised that I couldn't open outlook anymore.
Then tried a soft reset, but the machine wouod no longer reboot because it would hang with a message something like "autocheckrun or one of it's components can't be found. After a minute it would reboot again, and again.... Tried without memory inserted but didn't help.
Had to hard reset and restore a backup.
I'm running an ms exchange email account, could that have something to do with my issue?
Thanks,
Martin
problems overview
Interesting,
I did not have any of the above mentioned problems with my JAM. Everything was working fine, until..... I connected my JAM to my desktop for synchronization.... ActiveSync in JAM could not get initialized and I had to to HR.
So the patch is very useful, however better to wait for the one, specifically for JAM.
Hoping to see it soon
Thank you
I had the same Problems as thinksmart: after the softreset, my blue angel wasn't able to find bttrayicon or so. Needed to perform a hardreset and backup data. Kept me awake until four o clock in the morning...
I wanted to store my messages on my Storage Card. So to do this i used SKtools. So far so good. After a soft reset no programs are working anymore.
After some research I found out that my messages indeed were stored @ Storage Card\my messages ...BUT the REAL Storage Card was renamed to Storage Card2. That was the reason programs are no longer working.
I really dont now why SKtools should create a new folder with teh same name. Anyone knows this problem?
It's not SKTools renaming your card, it's your HD2.
I posted a few things about this early on and got no interest or response - you are the first person other than me who has tried this (apparently!).
In the absense of a more definitive answer, I am assuming that the storage card is slow to mount on the HD2, so the system can't find it when initialising mail and so creates it's own 'Storage Card' folder. When the real card is mounted it is therefore named 'Storage Card2'.
As for what to do about it... Well, there is talk dating back a couple of years about delaying the loading of mail applications to give the card a chance to mount, but that dates back to WM5 and WM6 and relates to disabling the mail plugin on the Today Screen. With that in mind I tried checking the Startup Folder and removed the link to poutlook that was in there, but it made no difference.
It may just be another example of where HTC in trying to improve the interface have badly impacted what was a crucial piece of functiuonality for me - the ability to move my mail to the Storage Card. Given the issues being reported with storage space on the device, this is a major pain!
You can at least use the system software to send any attachments to the Storage Card - that works without issue.
Hi
I am new to the HTC HD2 (Leo) but i am already amazed with its potential, could someone help me with the following.
As i am using this as a work phone as well i get a lot of Excel sheets send, when i download the excel sheet to my storage card it seems to download it as .att rather then .xls
Could someone help me where i can change that download configuration?
Thank you very mcuh
Kaiser
It saves them as xls files whenever I do that.
Can you click the attachment in the email and open it there? If so, save it from within excel that way (bit long winded, but will at least allow you to save them!)
What email are you using for this? I only use hotmail and gmail (not via exchange), so I don't use exchange. It's possible (if relevant) that this may be an exchange issue.
Edit: Sorry - you're using Outlook - that answers my question. I can definitely say it doesn't happen with hotmail, so it may be the outlook client, and it may be the outlook server. I'm sure if this is a client issue then it would have been spotted before now, so someone with relevant experience will be able to advise you accordingly.
Thank you for getting back to me.
Well i open the attachment within outlook and it opens excel , but when i close it and want to open it later on i go to my storage card where i am saving my downloads to but the folder is empty , but when i check on the PC i can see the storage card does have it but as .att and i assume Excel is only can only find/look for .xls and .csv so i wondered where you can change the download settings for file extensions on the HTC HD2

Just to fulfil my curiosity, could you try saving an attachment in Location:Storage Card and Folder:None and be sure that it says Type:.xls (not that you can change that!)
When I do that, I can use file explorer to find the file in the root of my storage card. If you could try that and it doesn't work then there's definitely something funny going on!
ok i have tried the following i have downloaed a attachment and closed it found it saved it on my storage card the phone seems to have created a folder on my storage card inbox\mailattachments and i can see all my downloaded excel sheets saved as .att i renamed one to .xls and now i am able to see it when opening Excel and going to the folder strange .. still no close in knowing why it is saving as .att , maybe once i opened them the first time i have an option to save them as .xls which i doubt
strange problem bit annoying

Very strange problem indeed. You're obviously viewing files in a manner that shows you the extension, so what happens if you just change it to .xls instead of .att ?
yes i could rename them but that just annoying to always have to rename them so that i can view them at a later stage

Yeah, you're right, but it's obviously a problem somewhere. At least there's a solution for now. Maybe there's a user that has had similar issues and found a solution. Have you checked in non-Leo forums? This is a windows issue, rather than a phone-specific issue, so you may get more help there.
I really hope you've already done this, but there's an immediate suggestion from searching here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4415147
Thank you, i have just tried that and its a lot easier to tap&hold and save as rather then having to rename all the docs
I would like it to be saved auto with the .xls extensions but to be honest i am happy with this as well as i can now also save it directly into the folders i need it to be in rather then having to move them .. which was another problem for me
Thank you very much for your help really appriciated

Hey guys,
For some reason I believe the my email cache and downloaded messages are saved in the phone memory ?!
How can i change the storage location of my outlook mail ? as well as another email that I added (not outlook) ?
if you are wanting to free up space by moving attachments you can move it to the storage card.
Start->Email->Highlight the outlook account->menu->options
then select the storage tab and check the box so that the phone will use the storage card for all attachments
Thank you very very much
Move all to mem card

Moves all the messages etc onto mem card ie off the main memory.
Save space when like me I have 3 email accounts 6000+emails, plus some attachments, and if anyone asks yes it does take a while to resync after a flash..

Hello all,
has any of you tried this?
As I have seen some issues with a folder Storage Card2 issue, I'd like a feedback on the Leo/HD2 before trying it...
Basically, I have one mail of 10Mo on the main memory of my phone, stored in the Windows\messaging.
I have gone in the mail menu, options and storage " use Strage card".
I have the folder now on the storage card Inbox.mstxxxxxx.yyyyyy
but nothing in yet...
ie it did not move the existing messages to it yet...
How and when is it supposed to do it?
Sincerely,
vdelab

Ehum, I wouldnt be so sure. That cab adds/changes these two keys:
[HLKLM\System\Inbox\Settings]
AttachPath = "\Internal Storage\Messaging\Attachments"
PropertyPath = "\Internal Storage\Messaging"
Afaik, "Internal Storage" isnt mapped to the Storage Card in any way, at least not on the HD2? Has anyone tried this cab on the HD2? Might work if simply changed to "\Storage Card\Messaging\Attachments" and "\Storage Card\Messaging" respectively?
Use with caution
I would use this with extreme caution. All testing I have done on the HD2 (moving my mail files was one of the first things I tried when I got the device back in November) has suggested that the usual registry hack does not work and will merely create the Storage Card 2 issue. It's easy enough to sort out but it certainly won't move the mail files.
If anyone knows different and has got anything working in this respect please correct me but I believe the HD2 just won't play ball.
For what it's worth, the best guess I have at the problem is that the some element of the mail application is kicking off before the Storage Card is mounted
HTC HD2 Work Around - I assume
The reason y it keeps renaming to Storage Card2 because when you boot your phone, the HTC Home looks for your mails which should be technically in the actual memory card(storage card) once you've tweaked the reg. This happens while the phone is yet to detect the memory card. Due to the unavailabilty of the mem card, it creates a folder in root directorynamed 'storage card' then the phone detects the mem card and renames it to storage card 2 for obvious reasons.
Now the workaround, install all the four cabs for cache, email, etc... and then regedit "HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings" and edit
<parm name="PropertyPath" value="\Outlook\Mail" and "AttachPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments". The mail headers remain in phone memory, so that it can be detected on boot ups and avoids from renamings of storage cards, but the attachment stays in the mem card.
I edited the registry and set "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Settings\PropertyPath" = "\Storage Card\email\". After the first soft reset, I had the "Storage Card2" problem, so I went into Resco Explorer and moved the "email" directory to "\Storage Card2\email\", then soft reset again. On the 2nd boot, Storage Card is back to being named as Storage Card, and now, all my emails are on the Storage Card instead of internal memory.
I have over 4000 emails with attachments downloaded now without any impact on internal storage space.
-edit-
I'm still getting the "Storage Card2" problem on a few soft resets... I guess the only way is to have the email text on the device and attachments in the Storage Card...

Please could someone advise the cabs information as above RED, thanks in advance.
@ben19
I don't believe your solution is any different to that which can be achieved by setting attachments to be stored on the card from within Pocket Outlook - which is also potentially safer as it doesn't involve a registry hack by the user.
@gregwee
I believe you will be stuck with the Storage card 2 issue until someone manages to crack the fact that the HD2 seems to load up email before it mounts the card. You are therefore correct in that having mail in main memory and attachments in the card is about the best we can do for now.
@apieceofcake
For the reasons above, I don't think any CAB will address the fundamental issue so my advice would be not to bother and simply set your attachments to be stored on the card
I would love to see a cab-file that could move all messages (not only headers) to my storage card as default.
Bit of a joke. its a Windows based product, need to get all my Outlook mail. Internal memory is now full. Have nothing else on the bloody phone except for 2 apps. Need help with this urgently as I can't put up with this much longer!

pocket mechanic can relocate Outlook emails to your sd card, hope that helps.
Thanks S21s20! Have you confirmed it works for the HTC HD2?
Ok,
My aim is to save all mail (not just attachments) on The SD Card for wm6 devices specifically htc hd2
forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-298646.html
been there done that, the "storage card2" problem is persistent (on this device) even if it remains "storage card" after 5-6 reboots; sooner or later it is renamed "storage card2" and a new "storage card" folder is created at the root of your device where all new mail starts to get stored... :-(
the issue really is that he sd card is recognized after the registry tweaks / are executed at boot up
So, how do we make sure that the OS to recognizes SD Card first before the mail starts at boot-up or teh registry tweaks are executed
i have tried all other things like (without success)
1. disable sense,
2. use windows default theme & remove messaging plugin from today's home screen
3. place a shortcut of SD card folder in teh start-up folder
4. deleted all other items in startup folder which load at boot
5. formatted the sd card as fat 16 / fat 32 with all possible sector sizes...
u name it i have done it .. does not work..
what we need are some serious registry tweaks... anyone interested ? any suggestions ?
One suggestion i have in mind (for someone who knows how to write cab / .exe files) is to create a small program to enable and disable the following registry tweak at boot-up and shut-down a shortcut of whoch can then be placed on the screen.
before shutdown - click to disable
after boot up - click to enable
HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings
add "PropertyPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail" datatype="string"
add "AttachPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments"="string"

I'm crying out for the same solution. My internal memory is critically low. I've tried pocket mechanic which didn't work. I'm down to plain text email with attachments on storage card and I'm still out of room. And yes, I need access to a large database of emails on the go. It was my primary reason for returning to winmo and getting the HD2 after a 6 year hiatus.
given hosted exchange a thought?? (4 bucks a month or so)
profimail runs entirely from the SD card and is much better than the standard outlook email client.

trying profimail 3.26
Hello
I'm trying profimail 3.26 and results are not quite well.
application crash often, i found no integration with today or sense on any forum, and the design make me think to old DOS application.
Good if you need to have a backup of a mailbox on your pda but not very usefull for every day for me.
If some of you have a better idea, i'll take it.
Isnt't it possible with SK-Tools?
http://www.s-k-tools.com/index.html?sktools/m_feat.html
after profimail
For those who want to use something like profimail to have a mail client on sdcard with sdcard storage see rather free softwares. I found nPOPuk but there is probably many other.
BUMP.
Please, we need a solution to this. We need to be able to successfully save email, not just email attachments, to the storage card, on the HD2, with the Storage Card 2 issue.
???
As said before profimail, or nPOPuk do that ! Not with outlook mobile but this work before a better solution
Supposedly this app does it, as per line 66 on the app details screen:
http://www.tweaks2k2.com
No guarantees that it'll work though, and you may have to hard reset if it breaks something! The software is ANCIENT, might I add. Even on the support forums, the last post was Aug 2009, and the last one before that was 2008 sometime!
To be honest, I would second the idea of getting an Exchange account. MUCH easier, sync the last two weeks or month or what have you, and just use the Search Server feature (built into Outlook Mobile) to get older things.
Don't work with hd2 with french language. a try more lol
The OP is spot on.
Any number of apps and manual tweaks that used to work on other devices do not work on the HD2 and never will unless we can work out and sort the root cause.
To the best of my knowledge the issue is that something is initialising the mail store before the storage card is mounted. Because this happens the device can't find its mail store on 'storage card' and so creates it own 'storage card' in device memory. When the real card is mounted it becomes 'storage card 2'.
Like the OP I have tried disabling everything I can think of that might be causing this behaviour but to no avail. I suspect there is some sort of pre-loader for Sense that runs very early on in the device start up to prepare the device for the Sense UI, but can't prove that. However until we find out what it is and how to delay it somewhat, we aren't going to get mail on the storage card.
I have no solutions, but I can confirm the scale of the challenge!
have tried Flexmail, profimail, npopuk,... (all good rated clients) nothing able to do the job correctly.
Always unable to download all mails and attachements or to see it correctly.
Just incredible to see that in 2010 with a phone like HD2.
Softwares like opera show pretty good html and is usefull, downloading file is not too hard. Why is it so hard or impossible to find a good mail client ? The first Outlook Express on PC do better than that and is now very old.

Do you REALLY have that many e-mails? I just did a test, and switched my main account from "last 3 days" to "last 30 days", going from about 50 messages to 500 in 3 folders, and watched before-after memory usage, it only ate an extra 4.5MB. I'm set to HTML, 20kB and no attachments...
I mean that's just what one app takes, and less than the various caches... Don't know if you've already done it, but moving the Album cache to the card (this one can easily grow to 20-30MB) makes more sense...

Probably not for me. I need to have 2 boxes with about 2000 emails each and somme attachements. A total of 300 mb probably. Not so much for some Gb. I bought this phone for work and want use the sdcard for those emails. It's name is "windows phone" not ipod or psp or ixus. If i need that i know where to find it. A mail client (Outlook in this case) unable to store 300mb, does not it's job. Email means attachement else it is an SMS. Even when i store attachements on in the sdcard, the phone cry for memory. for information i use no music, no photos, no videos, no games.
Wow... how do you manage, sort, search, browse through 4000 e-mails on a phone???
OK, probably in that kind of use it might not do the job, but it's the first time I see someone needing it...
What you're after is an UMPC A phone's email is great for the couple of hours you're away from a proper computer, not really meant as a primary device...
Hi all, I can't believe no one found a solution on this issue so far, there are already about 5 different threads about this issue. Is no one out there having an Idea?
as I asked before: In SK-Tools, there is a menu-point: Tunup->System Memory and Speed->Messaging file\windows ---> to any other path, include the storage card.
Isn't this a part of the solution? You can download a trial-version with this point. Test it. possibly works on a HD2.
The solution is: GET AN EXCHANGE ACCOUNT, SEARCH IS BUILT INTO THE DEFAULT CLIENT!
as far as I understand from other threads you can't get far with the SK-Tools solution because you end up having the "storage card2" issue.
@mazzarin: what do you mean with
"GET AN EXCHANGE ACCOUNT, SEARCH IS BUILT INTO THE DEFAULT CLIENT"
