How can Outlook Auto-Delete Sent mail?

[Guest]

Under Tools, Options, I unchecked 'save copy of Sent mail.' But, Outlook
still has weeks worth of mail in the Sent folder. Today, I right clicked the
sent folder, Properties... the best option is for Archive to Automatically
Delete, however, the lowest date is One day. I browsed through Rules, and
didn't see anything that looked right. I don't want Sent mail saved at all.
Is there a way?

Sue,

Thanks for responding. I uncheck the | Save Sent Copies box, but the mail
is still there. It's been unchecked since I installed the system in August.
I tried the Archive thing a couple of weeks ago, but even that doesn't delete
them.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

Outlook still has weeks worth of mail in the Sent folder.

Then open the folder, select all the messages with CTRL-A and press Delete.
All the old sent items will be gone.

Bill,

Thank you. I do this. However, several of my managers are still trying to
find the 'any' key. I was hoping for an automated process to ensure
sensitive information isn't compromised.

I don't know of any automated way.
