Export Mailbox to .PST

Hello,
I wish all contents(Send,Receive,..etc) older than '06/21/2014' from all mailboxes should be exported to pst.
What to include additional to this cmdlet -
New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox <alias>
-FilePath "\\Server\ShareFolder\<alias>.pst"
Please Guide.
Few details-
Name of Test mailbox - Demo
Mailbox Created on 06/10/2014
1) When I use the normal cmdlet,
New-MailboxExportReuqest -Mailbox Demo -FilePath "\\Server's IP\ShareFolder\Demo.pst it generates a pst of
1505 KB.
2) When I use the cmdlet specifying today's date (For maximum output)
New-MailboxExportReuqest -Mailbox Demo -ContentFilter {(Received -lt "07/23/2014")} -FilePath "\\Server's IP\ShareFolder\Demo.pst
it generates a pst only of 265 KB. (It means something is wrong somewhere)
3) Now the Strange thing is, the mailbox is created on 06/10/2014 (1.5 months old), when I use the cmdlet specifying the far previous date (3 months old)
New-MailboxExportReuqest -Mailbox Demo -ContentFilter {(Received -lt "04/23/2014")} -FilePath "\\Server's IP\ShareFolder\Demo.pst
it again generates a pst of 265 KB. (It means something is wrong somewhere again)
Please Guide.
Thanks, Divyaprakash Koli

Hi,
I tested in my lab, the result is the same with yours.
I created a test mailbox, then I sent some messages to this mailbox and created some sub-folders under Inbox folder.
Then I run the New-MailboxExportRequest cmdlet to export to .pst file with specifying the date, no items existed before this date.
As a result, the size of this .pst file is 265KB which is the same with yours. I imported it to another new mailbox successfully, there were no items in this mailbox, but there were the same sub-folders under Inbox folder, the folder structure was the same.
After that, I delete the sub-folders in the original mailbox, then exported to a .pst file, the size of this .pst file was still 265KB.
Based on this test, it seems that the size of .pst file is a fixed value 265KB, if there are no items exported.

Exchange 2010 Export Mailbox to PST using only .EDB file

I have Exchange 2010 SP2 Update Rollup 4, SBS 2011 (which is similar to Server 2008 R2). I have recently recovered from a server crash due to a faulty RAID controller and need to recover some e-mail (and possibly contacts) from a couple of mailboxes.
My main concern is that my old .edb file is in a old forest that is different than my current forest. Due to the length of the old internal domain name having more than 15 characters (I previously migrated using a answer file) and my current internal
domain name is 15 characters.local they are different.
I also dont have the log files or STM file
With the two internal domain names being different will I still be able to follow this related topic:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/zh/exchange2010/thread/8f4eb425-72ff-4d18-abfc-5c00be7113e2
If not please let me know which direction I should be going. I know there are third part tools that can get this done but not in the budget right now.
Teron

Hi,Teron,
Cross forest export mailbox is not possible,if you have the old forest server still running you can export the mailbox in the old forest to PST file then import the pst file to your current forest.
Otherwise you should convert the edb file to PST with thirdparty tool as the above guys said.
Some additional information just for your reference.

Export mailboxes to PST (Exchange 2007)

Hi All,
Is there an 'export-mailbox' cmdlet I can use to export each of the mailboxes in our mailbox database using the following file name format, so that the full smtp address is used as the filename of each the PST file exported:
[email protected]
[email protected]
etc, etc
We are currently migrating to a cloud email provider and they have strict rules on processing PST files. The exchange database is only 65GB in size, so not that big in the grand scheme of things.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Untamed, you sure can. Here's the original code I sent:
Get-Mailbox -Database <databasename> | Sort name | % {
    $MbxSmtp = $_.PrimarySmtpAddress.ToString()
    Export-Mailbox $MbxSmtp -PstFolderPath "\\Servername\Share\$MbxSmtp"
Note the first line, which ties the code to a single database. You can change that line to focus on any group of mailboxes, even to a single mailbox. Here's code for a single mailbox:
Get-Mailbox <mailbox alias> | Sort name | % {
    $MbxSmtp = $_.PrimarySmtpAddress.ToString()
    Export-Mailbox $MbxSmtp -PstFolderPath "\\Servername\Share\$MbxSmtp"
Here's code for an OU:
Get-Mailbox -OrganizationalUnit <OU DN, as in "ADDomain.company.com/OURoot/SubOUName"> | Sort name | % {
    $MbxSmtp = $_.PrimarySmtpAddress.ToString()
    Export-Mailbox $MbxSmtp -PstFolderPath "\\Servername\Share\$MbxSmtp"

Executable or batch script for end users to export mailbox to PST

We are in the process of taking over a small firm and proceeding with manual migration of mailboxes from this firm , currently we do not have full access to their environment and having a hard time depending on admins of their organization dealing over
to exporting mailboxes and then importing them back to our exchange environment, my idea is to rather provide a executable or batch script to user's of their organization get their mailboxes exported out directly from end users so that we do not
have to depend on remote organization's admins for every single user out there . is there a batch script or some executable code that end users can run to have their mailbox exported out directly ?

Export Mailboxes to PST using CSV

Hello - I'm in the process of exporting mailboxes from another exchange server from a company we acquired so I can import email into their new mailbox. I have a CSV formatted with headers
old,new which has their old alias and new alias. I also only want to capture the last 60 days of email. However, I seem to be missing something in formatting as it keeps creating a new line instead of just executing the script. I'm at a loss and can't seem
to get this working.
$sixty = get-date -format "M/d/yyyy" (get-date).AddDays(-60)
$UserList=Import-CSV C:\users.csv
FOREACH ($Person in $UserList) {
New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox $Person.old -ContentFilter {(MessageKind -eq 'Email') -and (Received -gt $sixty) -or (Sent -gt $sixty)} -FilePath "\\server\pst\"$Person.new".pst"
Any help would be appreciated!

Try
$sixty = get-date -format "M/d/yyyy" (get-date).AddDays(-60)
$UserList=Import-CSV C:\users.csv

Hello! I think this is unclear in the documentation:
Will a new export request export the complete mailbox by default? Included contacts, calendar, online archive?

Hi Kthxbai,
The cmdlet below can take all folders and data in each and export it into the specified PST file. Also note that things such as the dumpster now can and by default will be exported.

Hey Mike Laughlin,
There are people with very great knowledge, not down from the level of knowledge of the consultant that sometimes is not objective (as it receives financial compensation from software to market).
Maybe its a complex request, but still it is appropriate to ask in the forum because maybe there are people who engaged or know part of the solution or how to do this.
For example:
SMB business opened a mailbox for each employee a normal (organizational) in Gmail, whether he can export the data to PST file? The script should be pretty similar (only the server address & port was different).
I am sure that the possibility exists, because Microsoft would prefer and promote the transfer of users to Exchange.

Export -mailbox to move emails older than 400 days to pst file

i have written the below script
$date = get-date
$MailboxList = get-content "E:\del_users.txt"
ForEach ($Mailbox in $MailboxList) {
Export-Mailbox -Identity $Mailbox -PSTFolderPath E:\pstfiles\$mailbox.pst -BadItemLimit 1000000 -StartDate $date.adddays(-450).ToString('MM/dd/yyyy') -DeleteContent
my target is to move all emails older than 450 days to a pst file. i ran this on one user and noticed his emails from today to 450th day from today was moved out.
In simple terms, i want to move all emails in all sub-folders that are older than 01-January-2014. Once this is done and when he logs to owa or outlook he must be only be able to see emails from 01-Jan-2014 to 17-Mar-2015.
how can i achieve this with the above script?

1. The user doing the export is a member of local administrator group in both source and target machine.
2. the user doing the export is granted the exchange administrator role on EMC in both the source and target machine.
3. Given full access permission to the username moving the mailbox to PST
4. given receive-as permission to the username moving the mailbox to pst
5. Given genericall access to the DB
6. Create a New User account (EX: ExportAdmin)
Add this account to a Exchange Server Administrator Permission Both Source and Target Exchange Mailbox Server
Add this account to Local Administrators Group Member Both Source and Target Exchange Mailbox Server
Make sure this account DO NOT HAVE ANY Domain Admin/Exterprise Admin permission(Just keep Domain User group permission)
Assign Mailbox Full Access to this account by follow Cmdlet
Get-Mailbox -Server "EX-CCR" | Add-MailboxPermission -User ExportAdmin -AccessRights FullAccess
Runas with ExportAdmin account (Open EMC)

Export list of Mailboxes to PST in Exchange Server 2010 -SP3 RU8v2.

Hi Everyone.
Every month we have to export around 50 to100 mailbox to PST for users
leaving process and the below command we use to export for each users manually.
Command :
New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox AylaKol -FilePath \\MBX-01\PSTFileShare\Ayla.pst
I would like to export the list of user's mailbox using a script and I got the below commands from another forum and tried to export with 2
test mailboxs.
Mailbox were queued as mentioned below,But the result is only one .pst file generate named ".PST".
[PS] C:\>$Export = Get-Content .\Users\exadmin\Desktop\Mailbox.txt
[PS] C:\>$Export|%{$_|New-MailboxExportRequest -FilePath "\\servername\D$\Export\PST\$($_.alias).pst"}
Name Mailbox
Status
MailboxExport ch.india.com/Non ch accounts/Users/Ram... Queued
MailboxExport ch.india.com/Non ch accounts/Users/Kha... Queued
Please advise if I need to change any think in the command or kindly share any script
Thanks.

Hi Amjath,
you can't use the previous automatic $_ variable behind a pipeline-"|". Here's a slight rewrite that ought to work:
# Get list of Mailboxes
$Export = Get-Content .\Users\exadmin\Desktop\Mailbox.txt
# For each mailbox start an Export request
foreach ($mb in $Export) { $mb | New-MailboxExportRequest -FilePath "\\servername\D`$\Export\PST\$mb.pst"}
Cheers,
Fred

Error: The specified mailbox database [Mailbox Database Name] does not exist, when you try to export mailbox in Exchange 2007

[Symptom]
======================
In Exchange 2007, when you want to export mailbox to a .pst file, you should run the
Export-Mailbox cmdlet from a 32-bit computer that has the following installed:
The 32-bit version of the Exchange management tools
Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP2 or later versions
If not, you may encounter the following error message:
You check that you have these required installed, but you get the error below when you run Export-Mailbox in EMS.
“The specified mailbox database [Mailbox Database Name] does not exist.”
[Cause Analysis]
=======================================
This is because that the account you use to run Export-Mailbox cmdlet don’t have the Exchange Server Administrator role assigned.
You can check if this account has been delegated the Exchange Server Administrator role through the following path.
EMC -> Organization Configuration-> Check permissions in the result pane.
To delegate this Exchange Server Administrator role, right click on the
Organization Configuration node and choose Add Exchange Administrator,
you will see the Add Exchange Administrator window.

Hi,
Based on my test, if you make the user the owner of the database (rather than a user with the db_owner role), when you create a query, it creates it under the dbo schema rather than DOMAIN\username.
Steps to do so (in Management Studio):
Right click database, select Properties
Click File
Change Owner in the textbox
OK to confirm
Downside - other users under db_owner role will still have their username appended. So schemas have to be created for these users.

Hi CFBM
Thank you for your question.
This is a permission related error. It means you have not permission to access user mailbox.
You can try to give yourself full access permission to user mailbox
You can refer to the following links :

Unable to run export-mailbox cmdlet.

Trying to run the following:
Get-MailboxDatabase MAILDB-01 | Export-Mailbox –PSTFolderPath C:\Backup\ -Confirm $false
But getting error that the cmdlet "export-mailbox" is not recognized.
I've added the role for import export and i can export single mailboxes, but running the above command wont work.
What i'm trying to achieve is to extract all mailboxes from the DB to psts instead, this needs to be done for backup purposes.
If this command is obsolete, is there any other way to achieve this?

From Exchange 2007 SP1 to Exchange 2010 RTM, you can use the Export-Mailbox command. Just as what Bobby mentioned above, Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 1 introduced a new method for exporting mailboxes called Mailbox Export Requests
First you need to have a RBAC access control for exporting the mailbox, you need to run below command first
New-ManagementRoleAssignment –Role "Mailbox Import Export" –User "adminid"
You can also become the member of Export Import Role through Graphically, By going to Tools in Exchange console
