Determining mailbox and folder sizes in Exchange 2007

 

 Problem Description : 

Often needed information is the mainbox and folder sizes for Exchange 2007. Command Line batch file mbx.bat will display these.

 

 

 Resolution : 

 

1. Open a CMD window

2. Enter command "mbx email@gdn.edu"

3. After last line displays you will be prompted to press ENTER key...press ENTER key :)

 

NOTE: Current, if incorrect email address is enter, the command will hang and "powershell" will need to be killed on Pegasus.

 

Sample
