I am trying to set the default autoarchive settings for user created folders
within Outlook 2003 using the code below yet I keep getting the error Object
doesn't support this property or method on the line: objMessage.Add
"IPC.MS.Outlook.AgingProperties". Does anyone know what is wrong here? I
would also like to change it to be recursive in case of subfolders. Any
revised sample code would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Lando
