[thelist] Outlook attachment directory?

I missed the start of this thread, so forgive me, but Outlook keeps the
attachment embedded in the personal folders file (.pst) and when you open it
it extracts it to your C:\temp or c:\windows\temp directory, and deletes it
when you close the file (I believe).
So you have to do a Save As... to get it to go somewhere besides Outlook.
does that help at all? or did I miss the original question?
