New Outlook user, please go easy on me. As of 01/01/2008 I have converted
from Eudora v7.x to Outlook 2007. Running Vista Home Premium, dual core 2.2ghz, 4gb RAM, all patches current per multiple runs of MS Update. I used AddressMagic to import all of my email messages from Eudora into a new OL2007 PST file. Conversion worked great, and I can see and use all of my emails and attachments. FUNCTION: Auto Archiving ERROR: * Pop-up error message declares: "Errors occurred while archiving. Look for a detailed report in your Deleted Items folder." * Delete Items folder shows messages of the format: Error while archiving folder "ABC" in store "Personal Folders - AJK". Cannot read archive properties from folder ABC. Cannot create archiving properties. An unexpected error has occurred. * Message above repeats in block format in the Deleted Items entry, naming different folders in each iteration of the message. BACKGROUND AND PROCESS: * The PST file is 3+ gigs, and I have it on an 8gb Express memory card to avoid physical RPS, latency, and other delays related to HDD. This decision was based on the size of the PST file. * I have an archive PST set up on HDD, and it shows under "Data Files" in OL. * Default Auto-Archive parameters are set to archive anything older than x months (plenty of messages to fit that description). * Right clicked on top level of mail folder tree, set auto-archive to use default auto archive, and I manually confirmed that sub-folders have this property as well. * Select Tools | Mailbox Cleanup | Auto Archive * Runs for a while, status at bottom of window shows archiving zzz folder and changes as it presumably goes about its business. * Archive PST does contain a duplicate of the main mailbox PST, but no messages can be found in any of the folders. * I went back through the main PST, and found many messages dated far beyond the x months I stipulated for archival. * Main PST file size does not appear to have decreased. * Archive PST file size does not appear to have increased. RESOLUTION SOUGHT: * Understanding of error. * Understanding of correction of error * Archival of main PST messages to reduce file size and increase performance of Outlook while maintaining online-near-line access to historical messages. Any ideas? |

The first run it was a lot of folders, but I do not believe it was every one.
The most recent run only had a handful. Anthony "Diane Poremsky" wrote: * Delete Items folder shows messages of the format: Error while archiving folder "ABC" in store "Personal Folders - AJK".
