When I upgraded from WinXP/OfficeXP to Vista/Office2007, (with some
frustration, but eventual success due to the posts I found here), I copied
over my outlook.pst and my archive.pst and was able to get them both to open
in Outlook 2007.

My problem now is that in my "archived folders" only my old calendar items
and old "sent" mail are showing show up. None of my "received" mail folders
are showing up. What might be causing this? Or am I just skipping some step?

Thanks in advance!
 
Archive works on modified date, also examine properties in Archive options,
you may be archiving to a new archive
 
Adding to the archive works fine. I hadn't done that yet, but I just tried
archiving a folder of received mail and it worked fine. I'm thinking that's
what you thought I meant(?) Which explains why I don't understand how
"modified date" would matter. If I'm misunderstanding, please clarify. But
I also did check and the autoarchive properties are set to use the same
correct archive.pst.

I want to know "Where did all of my previously archived mail go?" In
OutlookXP, my archive.pst had a lot of old received mail in it. The other
folders from the same PST file are showed up fine in Outlook2007.
