RE: Exporting Mailboxes in Exchange 2007
Definitely a powershell task. In fact, I think I like the
export-mailbox command BETTER than Exmerge.
Assuming all users are in the same org, mailbox server location
shouldn't matter. Something generic like
$personlist = Get-content peoplelist.txt
Foreach ($peep in $personlist) {
Export-mailbox $peep -pstfolderlocation t:\bigshare
}
Of course this assumes permissions on all boxes and that output is all
to the same folder. If you wanted to organize your output better you
could grab users using get-user -organizationalunit (instead of a text
file) and then throw certain OUs of PSTs to different storage. The
world is your oyster.

Hey,
I need to export several hundred users mailboxes to PSTs that are
scattered across a few different Exchange 2007 servers. Does someone
know of an easy way to do this? Maybe powershell reading the names from
a text file or something? Thank you Microsoft for not including Exmerge
in 2k7
Thanks in advance,
Shay

RE: Exporting Mailboxes in Exchange 2007
Powershell and a text file should work fine, or use a csv file and you can specify the target directory for each one along with the mailbox name.
