grrrr, so IT upgraded Notes to 6.0.3 from Release 5. BTW, I moonlight as IT, but during the day I'm payroll. anyway....

My archive was set to archive on a network drive. With the upgrade, it changed back to C:\Lotus\Notes\Data\archive and I don't have permission to change the path back to the network drive.

What supremely sucks about this, is that now my archive files are totally fucked! I had 2 separate files. So I dealt with the help desk to combine them. Now when I archive, my folder view in the archive doesn't update. For example, I create a new folder in my regular mailbox, put emails in there, and archive. In my archive, the folder doesn't exist, and the email is only available under the All Documents View.

So this was kind of a rant, but if there are any notes geniuses out there who would have an idea of why folders don't update in the archive, so I can school this notes "admin" on how to fix it, it would be greatly appreciated!! Currently what they're suggesting is I just start with a new archive. In my opinion that's like reinstalling windows because of...well any small issue we face daily, spyware, dialers, etc.

Thanks!!

Not sure if this works in notes, but with outlook/exchange, if you add a new folder, you have to tell it to become part of the archive. Might be a setting like this in notes as well.

I wish we used outlook here. I hate notes with a passion.

There's also a policy in place that after 60 days, email is automatically deleted. I never archived until I figured out that little dandy, and had to figure out the "mystery" of where the fuck my emails were disappearing to! haha
