Default Outlook contacts and email address book

I'm having problems with the separation between the contacts list for my pda
and the email adress book. I have my outlook 2007 set up with outlook
connector and msn email as the default. Everything was working fine until I
purchased an HP IPAQ 211. When I tried to synch my pda contact list (not
email list), somehow the two got merged and all my contacts (2000+) took over
my msn email address list. I finally solved this problem by changing my msn
email to not be the outlook default. While this seemed to separate the pda
contact list from the email address list, now I have a problem that when I
start an e mail and save it as a draft it goes into the default outlook draft
folder instead of the msn.com draft folder. Is there anyway to direct the
drafts to a different folder?

Your PDA will sync with the default data store, whether it's a PST or the MSN
folders. Drafts always go into the Drafts folder in the default folder set.
So, if you have the MSN folders the default, your PDA will sync with those
folders and those folders will contain the Drafts folder where unsent messages
will go when you click Save. If you change the default folders to a PST, then
your PDA will sync with those folders and that's where your drafts will be
saved. If you want to save Drafts in another folder, instead of Save, use
Move to put the message in the Drafts folder you want.
