Folder specific archive settings within Outlook 2007

Hi all,

I'm trying to set up the auto archiving feature on separate folders within my Outlook. I have multiple folders that are having emails diverted successfully diverted into them, however the emails become invalid after 7 days. I have set up the auto archiving feature on each of these folders as seen in the screenshot attached, however the emails are still there after a period of several weeks. I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but this is on a corporate network with Outlook 2007 and Exchange.

Within the default auto archive settings in Outlook (Tools -> Options -> Other -> AutoArchive) I have the settings configured to run auto archive every day and this is the only setting enabled. Screenshot for the default auto archive settings attached. Is anyone able to assist in either setting up the auto archiving feature to delete these emails after 7 days, or is there another solution to this?

Regards,
Patrick

Thanks ezekielseyes,

I had a look at the modified date and unfortunately the modified date for most (over 90%) is the same as the received date. Are there any other factors that the auto archive could be using as criteria?
