Autoarchive not working

[teju]

I am using OL2003 SP2 on WinXP Pro/SP2 on my office desktop. I have set
multiple folders for autoarchive and I had autoarchive working
correctly for months. But then it has just stopped working. The tech
support staff at work came back saying autoarchive stops working if the
mailbox size increases beyond a certain size. I cleaned up the mailbox
and found that manual archiving works. But archiving using autoarchive
settings does not work.

I also read about the modified date issue in OL. But all my modified
dates and received dates are the same and old enough for the mails to
be archived.

So not sure what is the problem.

What sort of manual archiving are you using? Have you run it using the File
menu > Archive > Archive all folders according to their settings.

Pretty much...except that I am using the Archive this and all sub
folders option and specifying a date. That works perfectly.
