Archiving Deleted Items

[Butch Haynes]

Running Outlook 2003, SP 3 under Win XP Pro-- I got dialog box asking me if
I wanted to archive stuff and I said yes. During the processing, I saw it
was archiving the Deleted Items folder-- which I don't want.

What is the file or folder name of the archive so I can delete that-- and is
there a way to not archive that folder next time it archives?

To set the Deleted Items's autoarchive to Do Not Archive:
right click the deleted items folder | Properties | autoarchive tab | do not
archive....

To find where it was archived, have a look on that screen for the
destination location of the autoarchive process. It will show the path.

To find the old stuff that was archived, the archive folder should show in
your Folder List - left bottom corner of the screen find the button to show
the Folder List.
