Ext ROM question

[Dolphran]

It is my understanding that if the ext ROM is left unhidden then that is where email attachments will go and there is no workaround known for this.

I assume that if I don't often receive large email attachments, then the 9+MB space of the ext ROM should be more than adequet for this purpose. Are there folks out there happily using it this way? Are there any other negative repercussions of having the ext ROM un-hidden?

What happens when there is insufficient room for an incoming attachment? Assuming that it is simply not stored (as opposed to overwritting existing ones) is there a way to know that a message was supposed to have an attachment but it wouldn't fit?

Does anyone know if alternative mail apps, such as WebIS FlexMail, have the same attachment issues?

Thanks for your time.
