Message store location?

I have just added Vista as a dual-boot with XP Pro.
I have been using OE for my mail and newsgroups. For security reasons I have
always shredded the messages (.dbx files) instead of using the usual
maintenance routine. I would like to do the same with Windows Mail. How
would I accomplish this? Further, Does anyone know of a good
eraser/shredder utility that is engineered for use with Vista?

Well, your messages are now stored as single files in your storage folders,
so if you delete them in Windows Mail they should be gone from your hard
disk the same instant. Since you ask in the subject line, the location of
your storage folders is easy to find here: <Tools/Options/Advanced/
Maintenance/Storage Folder>.
