IMAP with Outlook 2003 Data Files Problem

Hi,

when setting up an IMAP connection with Outlook 2003 the application does
not let one select where to store the files related to the account. It is
possible to define a "Mail delivery" data file... but no email go into that
one. One can also try to move the *.pst file out of "C:\Documents and
Settings\%ProfileName%\Local Settings\Microsoft\Outlook". But when one opens
Outlook 2003 again it will recreate a new file at the old location "C:\Docs &
Settings... etc." instead of somewhere else.

Any ideas? Outlook Express does it so why not Outlook?. It is really
important to put these files in a different location for backup reasons and I
do not want to use O-Express because I cannot syncronise it with my
handheld....

If you have any ideas... let me know
cheers,
andi
