MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / January 2005Auto Archive settings on creation of new subfolders
Posted this just before Xmas, no replies, would appreciate any feedback... OL2003 on XP Pro SP2. I have created AutoArchive settings on folders, set it to use the settings for all folders, and tested. All works fine. *But: If you create a new subfolder under "Inbox", the Autoarchive settings are not propagated. Is this by design, and is there any way to do this differently? i.e. when a new subfolder is created, it should take the AA settings of the top-level folder?? Tx! Eugene It is by design -- I know of no way to make the settings automatically propagate. I'm not sure I would want all my subfolders to have the same settings as my Inbox, and Microsoft probably felt most people would also prefer to choose the settings for each folder separately.

However, in a corporate environment, where I would like to be able to set these up by default (and don't have the funds for one of those expensive Exchange Archiving solutions!) it is most definetely a feature well worth having...

Microsoft does read the e-mails sent to these addresses, and the more users requesting a certain feature, the more likely it will be implemented in the future.
