how does auto-archiving in Outlook name the files?

[Guest]

If I set up an auto-archive on an Outlook exchange server email account, I
know it takes the .ost file and turns it into a .pst file in a location of my
choice. I can even set up the name. But when it runs automatically, it will
name the first file the way I specified. How does it name the subsequent
auto-archive files? I'm afraid it will overwrite the first auto-archive.
Will it?

No it won't overwrite it - if the new file is aimed at the old one, it adds
the data and make folders as required.
