Outlook 2007 File Locks
Whenever I save a file or message from outlook it puts a file lock on the folder so I can't rename the folder until I close outlook.

This is actually a lot more annoying than you would think due to the way my work flow is managed, and I have this problem several times a week.

I'm dubious there is one, but if anyone knows of a cure for what ails me ... thanks.

Instead of using the Save As dialog, try dragging and dropping the email into the folder you want to save it to.

I could be wrong, but this *should* be fixed in Outlook 2010.

Didn't know that.. I use 2003 and 2007... Figured this was a bug they'd never get worked out. Next time I use a 2010 version, I'll take a gander...
