I can mail a podcast to myself and get it on my iPod.
The message comes through right away, then I have to click on a link
in the message to download the attachment.
But if I go back to an older message, where I have previously downloaded
the podcast, it is gone and I have to do it again.
Where are these files stored, how long do they last, and how can I move
them to somewhere permanent (like the iTunes library).
ASKER
I tried opening it to Dropbox (which I already had installed). That works, but I'm still not confident about the long term availability of the file since my Dropbox storage is much larger than my iPod. I afraid the old files will get wiped out in the next synch.
So I have installed Evernote. If I use it only for the weekly podcasts, the free 60MB upload limit gives me a safety factor of 2 or 3.
Much easier than trying to synch with iTunes on my desktop.
