Export Exchange mailbox from one account to PST file or another user

 Problem Description : 

Command needed to export emails, etc from one Exchange account to either a PST file or another user mailbox.

 

 

 Resolution : 

 

1 - Go to the Vulture server console on KVM. This is not ran on Pegasus because the commands must be ran on a 32-bit Server 2008 server that is not actually running the email system.

2 - Launch Start->All Programs->Microsoft Exchange Server 2007->Exchange Management Shell

3 - Enter command export-mailbox with following parameters:

-identity <mailbox> - mailbox/account to copy from

-includefolders <folders> - if full mailbox export is not desired enter folder(s) to copy separated by comma. Example, -includefolders "\inbox\copyme" would just copy the folder copyme and all of its subfolders

-targetmailbox <mailbox> - if copying to another Exchange account, enter the account name

-targetfolder <folder> - name of folder to copy to on receiving mailbox

-pstfolderpath <path\filename.pst> - if copying to a PST file, enter the path for creating the file. 

4. If asked to confirm operation enter Y and press Enter
