Outlook archive function from IMAP folder to local folder

Question

I have a 1GB mailbox, now my mail client downloads messages to local folders via POP because 1GB is not enought to leave them online.

Now I would like to share the mailbox with another computer, therefore I supposed to switch to IMAP protocol but I have to manage the mailbox limited size. I can accept to share messages of a limited period, for example last 6 months, but I need that at least one computer has access to all message archive.

Can "archive" function of Outlook automatically move old messages from online IMAP mailbox to local folder?

Answer 1

Yes, Outlook Auto-Archive function works with IMAP account, it can automatically move old messages to local archive PST file.
