get the following message when I try to archive my emails:
error while archiving folder “inbox” in store “Personal Folders”. The source and destination folders for this application cannot be the same.
How can I fix this? Please help

Sounds like your personal folder is contained in your Inbox folder. Create a new folder that is not listed under Inbox. Name it whatever you want, i.e. archived mail etc.
create a new folder by itself. Don’t create it under personal folders
Ok I figured it out. The archive file address was defaulting to Outlook so I actually revised the address to default to the folder I created and it worked. I guess no matter how many files I would have created, the address would have always defaulted to Outlook (Personal Folders) as opposed to the new folder.
Thank you Grasshopper for setting me off in the right direction!
