Archiving Items Automatically

  1. Click Tools > Options.

  2. Click Environment, then click the Cleanup tab.

  3. Select Auto-archive after for the item type you want.

  4. Specify the number of days after the item is delivered or completed that you want it to be archived.

  5. Click OK.

If your system administrator has specified that items are automatically archived on a regular basis, you might not be able to change this option.

If you or your system administrator has set up auto-archiving of items in your Mailbox, items in the Tasklist folder are archived based on the original date you received the item, not based on the due date you assign it.

If you have automatic archiving set up, it only archives items to one computer. If you are working on a computer where the automatic archive is not available, the items are not archived to the computer where the archive is not available.
