In Outlook 2003, archived folders don't close after Auto-Archive is complete.
In Outlook 2002 I could see those opening and then in few seconds/minutes
being closed automatically when auto-archive is running. In Outlook 2003, the
folders are opened but never close. I have to close those manually. Is there
a setting that I need to change?
 
Yup. Go to Tools | Options | Other | AutoArchive, and clear the checkbox
that says "Show archive folder in folder list". It will still pop up while
the archive is going, but it should disappear after archiving is done.
