New issue 3732 by mikee...@gmail.com: allow for configurable storage
location
http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/issues/detail?id=3732

Droid bionic has both a built in SD area as well as an external SD card
that is accessed via sdcard-ext.

K9 should allow the user to specify the name of the external storage
location.

We already have the infrastructure to add additional storage locations. But
we need
a) a way to identify the device (i.e. "Model number" from Android
setting's "About device" page)
b) the path to the extra storage

Perhaps you can take the approach taken by some software like MyBackup Pro
that allows the user to specify the location/path of the external storage.
That way, the user could even specify a subdirectory on the SD card if they
wanted to.

Just a thought.
