Hello all. Recently I have noticed that my older Sent emails are disappearing from Outlook Express. Anytime a Sent email gets to be more than approximately 2 months old, it disappears from my Sent box. I have no idea where these emails go, but I can't find them. This is extremely annoying, since anytime I need to check or verify something I wrote in an email more than 2 months ago, I am, as they say, "sh%& outta luck."

As far as I know, I have not instructed Outlook to automatically delete old Sent items. As far as I know, I haven't instructed Outlook Express to automatically delete ANY old messages -- whenever I need to purge my Deleted Items, I do it manually.

Can anyone help? I just want ALL of my old Sent emails, no matter how ancient they are, to STAY in the Sent box where they belong!!!!

Thanks,
MrsSnape

It sound like Auto Archive took care of your older emails.

To check if your Auto Archive is enabled, go to

Tools menu > Options > Other > AutoArchive

Disable or prolong the duration before the next auto archive.
