Archiving problems with Outlook 2002

S

SPT

I had users in Exchange 2000 using outlook 2002 with 12
GB mailboxes. We don't want to bring the old mail to the
new server... We are archiving by year. The PST files
are less then 1 GB each. How large can a PST file be
with outlook 2003? How do I archive these files that
will no longer archive? I am doing a File>Archive not
automatic archiving...

4 gig mailboxes are only supported in Outlook 2003. Why did you archive it?

Also, archiving works on the modified date, so if you have played with your
items recently, the date will be set to the date on which you last accessed
the items.

| Hi,
|
| I was archiving a 4 GB mailbox by year so as not to
| exceed the .pst limit and had a need to put all the mail
| back into the mailbox once I was completed. The first
| operation when perfectly! Then the putting the mail back
| went perfectly. When I tried to re-archive the files
| that is where the problems began... It seems that if you
| archive files and try to archive them after you put them
| back into the mailbox they are no longer archivable...
| WHY? I need to archive this mailbox again because the
| original archive pst files were lost.

| Thanks,
| Scott
