Exporting Mailbox to a PST File

​Exporting mailbox to a PST File

Note: Must have the "Mailbox Import Export" role assigned

 

From powershell, type New-MailboxExportRequest -mailbox testmbox -name -filepath\\servername\pstfiles\testmbox.pst

This will export all folders and data in each and export it into the specified PST file. Also note that the dumpster will also be exported by default.

If you want to get additional details about the mailbox export request, you can use the Get-MailboxExportRequest or Get-MailboxExportRequestStatistics cmdlet.

 

if the export fails to complete, you can add -baditemlimit for eg

 

New-MailboxExportRequest -mailbox testmbox -name -filepath\\servername\pstfiles\testmbox.pst -baditemlimit 50
