AutoDelete the AutoArchive folder after a certain number of days?

[Devin.Scott.Howe]

Hi,

I have a user that hoards a rediculous amount of old email. Not only
does his network email box reach its limit, but the AutoArchive reaches
its limit too (I have discovered that the AutoArchive has a maximum
size of ~ 1.9 Gb). Outlook requires me to delete email from his
AutoArchive before AutoArchive will run (reducing the size of his
mailbox) and allow Outlook's Send/Receive to work. I'm getting tired
of doing this weekly ... he's a department manager.

Does anyone know of a way to automatically delete emails from the
AutoArchive folder after a certain number of days?

Thanks,

Devo

Just rename the archive PST from time to time while Outlook's closed.
Outlook will create a new one the next time archive runs.
