I found this from some Tips -page, but I haven't try it:

This article contains information about modifying the registry. Before you
modify the registry, make sure to back it up and make sure that you
understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For information
about how to back up, restore, and edit the registry
This article discusses how to configure the default folder that is used by
Outlook 2003 when you save e-mail messages and attachments
By default, when you use the Save As command to save e-mail messages and
attachments in Outlook 2003, these items are saved in your My Documents
folder. The path where e-mail messages and attachments are saved in Outlook
2003 by default isdrive:\Documents and Settings\user name\My Documents, where
drive is the drive where Microsoft Windows is installed, and where user name
is your user name
You can change the location where e-mail messages and attachments are saved
by adding the following registry value:
HKEY_CURRENT USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options\DefaultPath
If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that
may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot
guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor
incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.


1.Click Start, and then click Run.
2.In the Open box, type regedit, and then press ENTER.
3.In Registry Editor, locate the following subkey in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options
4.On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click String Value.
5.Type DefaultPath, and then press ENTER.
6.Double-click the DefaultPath value.
7.In the Edit String dialog box, in the Value data box, type the path,
including the drive letter, to the folder that you want to use for your
Outlook saved items, and then click OK.
8.Exit Registry Editor.
