As I explained earlier, I am not aware of any setting in Exchange covering this. It's strictly an Outlook setting as far as I know.

Agreed, this is a client setting, and is not related to Exchange. You can report on the presence of the pst itself with something like this:

or the registry keys themselves. I believe they are stored per-outlook profile (hard to enum) as well as some settings globally:
- HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Preferences\ArchivePeriod
- HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Preferences\ArchiveGranularity
- HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Preferences\ArchiveDelete
- HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Preferences\ArchiveMount
- HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Preferences\ArchiveOld

If you are talking about Outlook archiving, that's not something that's configured in Exchange. If you're talking about some third-party archiving product, then you'd need to talk to the vendor. If you're talking about something else, please explain in more detail what you mean by "auto archive".

So in Outlook>Tools>Options>Other>AutoArchive. I would like to know which users have the setting enabled.Wednesday, April 18, 2012 5:41 PM

Maybe something like System Center Configuration Manager can collect the setting from clients for you.
