Autoarchive failure

[Dr Teeth]

In Outlook 2007, I have autoarchive set to archive all emails older
than 6 weeks. Lots are several months old, imported from OE 6 under
WinXP.

When I run autoarchive manually, copies of my personal folders are
created under 'archive folders', but they are all empty and they
should not be.

Any ideas if I am missing something? I have followed the help and had
a good look for any other settings, but I cannot see any errors.

TIA.

Cheers,

Guy

When you import from OE all the modified dates are changed to the import
date (whereas if you exported from OE the dates remain)
I assume OL2007 is the same as earlier versions in that the Archive feature
works on the modified date

That could explain it. It will be a few weeks until my expire date
kicks in. I expected it to work by the receive/sent date.
