Strange archiving behaviour in OU2003

[MLA!]

Hi,
I found a strange archiving behaviour in OL2003.
In archive I set Older than June 1 08 and selected Sent items.
Named the file May-08.

After Archiving finished there are still May messages (about 30 in Sent
folder). The archive that was done for may contains the rest.

I renamed the file and tried again to archive Sent items of May. It created
265K file but didn't archive anything (when open file it's empty).

Than, I tried May, June. It's partially archived June...

What's that?

Thanks,
Michael.

Outlook's archive doesn't use the Received or Sent date. It uses the
Modified date. This guarantees that messages you've manipulated recently
don't get archived out from under you. See this:
