Is there some way of changing the folder that Microsoft Outlook stores emails in, the ones that go in the inbox? I'm trying to help someone clear some space on their hard drive. His C: drive is almost full and he has an almost empty D: drive. I'm exporting his inbox to a file on the D: drive, and then I want to import it to a new folder on the D: drive. How can I get Outlook to use that folder?

Well I'm certainly no expert as the complete loss of all my personal folders recently (for which I still need help) will attest to.

But I think that if you go to TOOLS>ACCOUNT SETTINGS and then click on the account you are concerned with, you will find below a CHANGE FOLDER option which allows you to select where you want the emails for that account to be stored.

Hope this helps.
