Kishon)

If a machine ever loses the network connection and OE tries to access the
Store Folder, OE will default to using a folder on that machine. And that
machine will not go back to using the network drive.
To move the Store Folder to a network drive, you must not lose the network
connection and no one else can try to access the Store Folder while it is
being accessed.
