C: drive space on my N97 Mini

Hi all

Not a new topic as such but... I really don't want to hard reset my N97 mini again to recover C: space but it continues to fall - I've lost about 10MB in the last month. I know I've got loads to play with (> 100MB) but it will keep going down so..

I know Nokia Messaging is a culprit but how? I regularly empty the deleted messages folder so what else is it storing? I only sync headers for the sent folder so there's not a lot of data in there.

What else can I do? I have a 3rd party browser to explore but aren't sure what I can delete safely. I know about the Web cache which I regularly empty. I also know about the C:/system/dmgr folder too.

Any other suggestions? Other than using Nokia Messaging - I really like the reliable push service.

Thanks for your help..

Oh well. No responses but - I have woken this morning to find that I have 174 MB free on the C drive - as opposed to 139 MB yesterday when I finished mucking around with the phone.

I have no idea where this memory has come from - I haven't installed or uninstalled anything or done any form of update or reset!

Maybe, I should just stop checking it...

I find a reinstall of Nokia Messaging frees up a fair bit when my C space gets low - I think it stores attachments and images etc on the C drive somewhere and there doesnt seem to be any way to delete them without just removing the application.
