I use an external archiving package (Carlsen's eMessage Archiver). However,
one method my friend Diane Ross advocates, that I keep meaning to give a
serious try, is to use dual identities within Entourage. For example, just
create an identity called Archive. When you want to archive a folder of
messages, drag it to the Desktop; switch identities to Archive; drag the
folder back into your folder list. Bingo! You've archived them. Switch back
to your main identity and delete the messages there.

The messages are still there where Entourage can search them, read, reply,
forward, etc. When you need an old message, just switch identities to
"Archive." Entourage X has vastly improved the speed of database searches,
making this more useful than ever.

It isn't incremental; it isn't automated. But it seems to me that, for some
users, it is all that will be needed.
