Hello All,

Two PSTs manually created, InboxPST & SentPST to auto-archive respective Mailbox containers. I have done this quiet a lot of times.

InboxPST set up within the Tools>Options>Other>Auto Archive and Sent configured on the container itself by right-clicking it & going into its properties.

I have done this many many times with other clients but with one particular client, after less than an hour of having created the two PSTs for auto-archive, the InboxPST now has the Task, Calendar and Journal containers as well and it has moved all the Mailbox Calendar entries to the InboxPST Calendar container. This is odd since no Calendar, Journal and Task containers were not created in the InboxPST. This is the first time that i see Outlook 2002 do this on its own.

The Mailbox Calendar option has the no Archive selected.

Any ideas why the above occurred is apreciated but also how to move thos Calendar entries - all at once - back into the Mailbox Calendar. I'll do some research as well.

Thank in advance-
 
Somewhere, the .pst file is being set to the default delivery location for the account. One more reason (of MANY) that .pst files are just evil and shouldn't be used in an environment unless Exchange server is not in the network.
