As far as storing messages on the card is concerned, Chatter puts the messages for each mailbox into a directory on the card, so it doesn't get in the way of anything else. It also stores the actual mailbox configuration along with the messages. Nice effect of this is that if you need to hard reset or something (or you get a new treo :-) ), and you reinstall Chatter, it will find the mailboxes on the card and offer you the option of recreating them on the fly; no need to have to re-enter all the parameters. I keep all of my Chatter email on my card and it works great (and doesn't take up internal memory space). Sam
