I need to know how to put a windows folder on the left hand display
that
directs to a windows directory to keep my outlook from getting full.
There are no folders (directories) or files in Outlook. That is a
hierarchical representation of how the data is stored in the maibox on
the Exchange mail server or in the .pst file (which is just a file).
All the mail is in the .pst file (a file, not a directory structure of
files). Folders and items in Outlook are only to show organization.
If you want to save items *outside* of Outlook then you will have to
export them.
