Unarchived messages are restored to the folder from which they were archived. If the folder has
been deleted, GroupWise creates a new folder with that name. If auto-archive has been configured,
then unarchived messages remain in your active mailbox for 7 days before they are moved back to
your archive.
If your system administrator has specified that items are automatically archived on a regular basis,
you might not be able to change this option.
If you or your system administrator has set up auto-archiving of items in your Mailbox, items in the
Checklist folder are archived based on the original date you received the item, not based on the due
date you assign it.

16.4 Backing Up E-Mail

Your system administrator typically backs up your network mailbox on a regular basis. You can
back up your local mailbox if you want to have an additional copy of your mailbox, or if you want to
back up information that is no longer in your network mailbox.
If the system administrator has created a restore area and has backed up the entire GroupWise
system, or if you have backed up your local mailbox in Caching mode, you can open a backup copy
of your mailbox to view and restore items. You need Read and Write access to the restore area if it is
on the network.
