archiving

Chris Riley

Hello,

I am trying to archive e-mail older than March 15, 2003.
I went into file/archiving. I highlighted my inbox, I
selected March 15 in the date field and I checked archive
items that say "Do not archive"

I checked the inbox on and there are still e-mails that
are before march 15 that haven't been archived. What am
I doing wrong?

Check the Modified date on the items that aren't being archived as you think
they should. That's the date Outlook uses to determine whether or not an
item is ready to be AutoArchived, and a simple action such as moving the
item to another folder can change the Modified date. More information and a
list of actions that change the Modified date can be found here:
