I have outlook 2002. Messages are deleted from inbox after 5-7 days. i have
examined settings and they apprear to be set to keep them indefinately. How
do I prevent deletion. If I flag the messages, they will not delete. PLEASE
HELP.
 
Check the auto-archive properties on the folder. Right click on the folder,
choose Properties and go to the AutoArchive tab.
 
You might also want to check the view settings - right click in an open toolbar area and select the Advanced toolbar. Use the dropdown to set your view to Messages, and not Messages in the last Seven Days.
