Deleting Empty Folders within PSTs

P

Hi Community

I auto-archive using all the defailts - so after 6 months much of my email
data (which is filed in my outlook.pst) id moved to my archive.pst file.

However as I am using a complex hierarchy of folders (e.g personal folders -
on line shopping - amazon - 2009 purchases) I am left with a large amount of
empty sub-folders in my outlook.pst.

Does anyone know if there is a setting to delete these subfolders
automatically once they are empty - or has anyone know of any "clean up"
software which can carry this out automatically?

Regards

You'll have to write some VBA code for that, I believe. While something may
already exist that can do that, I've not heard of it.
