While archiving a LARGE mailbox in Outlook 2002, I
received the following error:

"Error while archiving folder Inbox in store mailbox -
username. Unknow Error."

Can anyone help with this?

Thank you

Define large...and are you using Outlook 2003 or an earlier version? The
..PST file in Outlook 2002 or earlier can only hold about 1.83GB of data
(practical limit)...and each folder has limits on the number of items it can
hold.

I saw this error in Outlook 2003. I manually moved email to the archive file and noticed that one email wouldn't budge. I'm not sure if it was corrupt or not, but Outlook didn't like it. All I could do was delete the bad email. After that archiving started working again.
