I am running Outlook 2003 SP3 and have several open Personal Folders.
When I delete an email that is in a folder in one of these Personal Folders, the mail goes into that Personal Folder's deleted items and noy into my mailbox deleted items.
When I close Outlook, it automatically empties the Mailbox deleted items but not those in Personal Folders.
How can I make it automatically empty the deleted items folder in a Personal Folder?

Are you absolutely sure that you want to ?...
Methinks it is acting in the standard M$ frame of mind.
The same frame of mind that introduced the Recycle Bin, just in case you change your mind.
I don't use Outlook, but I think if you wait long enough (a pre-set # of DAYS) these 'deleted' items will disappear forever.

Trying Auto-Archive
Ok, I've just tried Auto-Archive with various settings but none of them seem to work.
Currently I have
Tools-Options-Other-Auto Archive with only the "Run Auto Archive" selected and set to 1 day (everything else is unselected)
All folders in my Mailbox are set to "Do Not Archive"
The deleted items folder in my Personal Folder is set to archive items older than 3 days old, other folders in the PST are set to "Do Not Archive"
Doing File - Archive and selecting "Archive all folders according to their AutoArchive setting" results in NOTHING being archived.
Doing File - Archive, selecting "Archive this folder and all subfolders" and highlighting "Personal Folders" archives the correct deleted items but ALSO archives items in folders set to "Do not archive"
Any ideas as to what I try next?

But i will go through the steps (simulate) you are taking and find out why it is not working for you. Though someone will most probably post an answer before me on here.
