Is there a way to automatically empty "deleted items", say every two weeks?
It looks like you can do this with autoarchive on that folder.

I select properties\autoarchive and tell it to run every two weeks deleting
"old items" but nothing happens.

What's the definition of an "old" item.

Thanks!

I have Outlook set to delete on exit. It depends on your environment and how
long you need to hang onto deleted items. If they are deleted, why not get
rid of them when you close Outlook? If you're in an Exchange environment and
your administrator has turned on deleted item retention, you can recover
deleted emails during the time specified (they should be able to tell you).
If you're a home user, why would you need to hang onto deleted items?
 
Okay, I'm a dummy. The below works but according to the autoarchive
schedule. I was expecting it to run on closing outlook.
