Hmm ok. I was just going from what the Get-Help said - I'm pleased that it's wrong. Thanks for the follow up.

I have tested this, and this is not true. The Export-Mailbox command exports the entire dumpster, no matter what. The problem is that, unlike ExMerge, you cannot specify *only* the dumpster to be exported, *and* Export-Mailbox also converts the dumpster items to regular mail items and puts them in the folder(s) they were deleted from. This is this case both with exporting to another mailbox and exporting to .pst (again, from personal test results). ExMerge is your best bet for this, since you can get only the dumpster. And, although technically unsupported, it works just fine (as MBS had already indicated to me in a different question).

This is of limited use but perhaps worth Robert pursuing: "If you export data to another mailbox by using the TargetMailbox parameter, the Export-Mailbox cmdlet also exports messages from the dumpster of Deleted Items. The messages from the dumpster are converted to regular messages when they are exported."

Smith Sent: 07 May 2009 17:58 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange 2k7, Recover Deleted Items Exmerge can do this (plus any number of 3rd party tools) - export the dumpster to another PST for offline review. If the user has Outlook 2007, you can look at their deleted items from anywhere - just set up a new profile on their mailbox (of course, you have to grant that right). ________________________________ From: Robert Smith [exch...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, May 07, 2009 12:28 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Exchange 2k7, Recover Deleted Items Thanks for the reply Michael, Is there any way this can be done without physically being at the users workstation?
