after upgrade to cx10, outlook can't open pst file in ntfs-3g partition.

OS: Linux
Distro: Ubuntu
Version: 10.10
Arch: 64bit
CX: CXOffice Pro 10.0
Installer: .deb

I just upgraded CXOffice Pro from 9.2 to 10.0. To do it, i first removed previous version (uninstall, purge, and remove all files in $HOME/.cxoffice) and then installed .deb file. Everything went ok.

Installed Office Enterprise 2007 in a new bottle (same one I had over 9.2). Everything went ok.

When running Outlook, I try to open the same .pst file that I used to open in cx9.2 and I get a message saying that it is not possible to access device, drive or file as requested....

file is located under a /data ntfs-3g partition, with all rwx permissions set to all users allow.
folder is accessed through a symlink from $HOME/.cxoffice/..../drive_c/users/crossover/My Documents to /data/documents. This is the exact same configuration I had working on 9.2

I can open and create new .pst files on $HOME/.cxoffice/.../drive_c directories, with is a ext4 partition.

Also, I have checked that I CAN create Powerpoint or Word files in the same folder where the .pst file is located. So the problem ONLY happens with Outlook.

Is it maybe a regression problem of cx10?

Please advice
