When auto archiving is turned on in MS Outlook 2K - does it append the new information or does it overwrite the data that previously existed in the .pst file?

Thanks for any responses!

I thought that it overwrote duplicate data, but appends new data. So emails already in your archive will always stay...
 
I tested it. . .

It does append and depending on what you select during the import/export process it may or may not overwrite duplicates.

Thanks for the info!
