It didn't seem to do any damage to KeyMail when I tested it right now. I had backed up that directory in case anything should happen, so I could restore it. When I deleted /KeyMail/Attachments of the Flash Disk and tried to attach a file, I received the message: "The system cannot find the path specified", which meant that the folder wasn't automatically created. Also, when I tried receiving an e-mail with an attachment and having deleted the directory prior to receiving it, I received the message: "Error saving e-mail: the system cannot find the path specified", meaning that, again, the folder was not automatically created. However, when I created it manually, everything worked well.
