Hi, we have an exchange 2000 server, outlook 2000 mail clients. We have one
user who has a WinXP Pro OS, and is trying to archive emails out of his
mailbox and into a pst file. When he archives for messages older than
dd/mm/yy, the messages seem to be put into the archive folder/pst file, but
they still remain within his mailbox on the exchange server. anyone any
ideas?

thanks in advance for any suggestions

Does the user have the delete file after archiving checked?
Tools->options->Other->Auto-Archive.

Due to the Swen virus, all e-mails sent to this account will be deleted
w/out reading.

i'm not autoarchiving, just doing File - Archive, and i've included "files
with do not autoarchive checked"

Would u know what date the archiving is based on, ie, received date,
modified date etc.

thanks for any suggestions
