Version of Outlook? 2003
Type of mail account? pop/smtp just on own laptop-not over server

Which mailbox is set as the default delivery location? personal folders(go
to inbox)

Which method do you use to open items of your co-workers? I am not trying to
open my coworkers- just comparing our own - theirs works on their laptop with
same settings and mine does not - don't see inbox under archive folders and
files don't get archived???
To open archived files on my own I go to file-open data file and get the
archive.pst

Which folder is selected when you initiate a manual archive? archive folder

thanks,
barb
