83581 2002-09-26 22:16:00 Windoze 2000 MS Outlook - the morning frustration

Every 2 days on STARTUP Outlook (V8.5.5104.6) wants to autoarchive

This can conflict with McAfee auto updating and especially the b****y BNZ's pathetic PC Banking which I use first thing to download yesterday's transactions .

How can I "control" just exaactly WHEN Outlook does AutoArchiving ?

And while we are at it how can I set the default "snooze" reminder to something more convenient than 5 mins ?

Sorry if my tone sounds a little exasperated but this IS a Macro$lack product we are dealing with ..........

Click on the Autoarchive button.

Allows you to set the number of days, age of mail etc.

Tools\Options\Other\Autoarchive

I'm not sure you can adjust the default snooze option but you can select a longer period when the reminder pops up on your screen

But I have already looked there and it seems to be very limited in options - maybe Macro$lack knows best

[ Microsoft = OneWorld, Our World, MicosoftWorld ]

Clearly I am NOT a fan of being told what to do by the vendor - I would of thought that the many megabytes of code would have facilitated a tiny bit more customising than this paltry offering

Maybe I'll just DISABLE AotuArchive altogether and setup a "manual" reminder system in my Amaze Daily Planner (complete with customised sounds)
