Archive file overwite?

C

I have reformat a PC with Outlook .PST files. But instead of doing an Import
to .PST, I just copied the existing files from User>Local
Settings>Application Data>Microsoft>Outlook. Now, once I turn on Auto
Archive, will it overwrite my existing Archive file?? Please help!

The archive option will remove mails from your current data file, that match
the date criteria and add them to the Archive.
If you want to create a new archive file just change the name in the Archive
options.
(By default its Archive, but you could ammend the name to eg Archive2008)

That's certainly a bad idea.
