Outlook Attachment Save As Doing Conflicts With Bittorrent Sync.

we have several folders shared with differents users in our company.
 
Those folders are being syncing to a remote pc using "bittorrent sync" in read only mode. (backup sync)
 
We have experienced a bug in the process. When we try to save an email attachment from outlook 2010 to a shared folder, sometimes we have the "can't save attachment" and sometimes haven't.
 
Outlook saves a .tmp copy of the attachment and then it changes  to the correct file. i think the problem happens when bittorent sync is syncing the temp file and keep it locked, so outlook can't finish the process and give us the error message.
 
Same happens when we save an attachment and we try to save it again and overwrite it. 
 
we think it can be a bug or maybe an error in the way outlook interact with bittorrent sync and a shared folder.
 
(Sorry for my grammar mistakes, it's not my mother language)

 

Regards.
