Hello: Is there a command/script for synchronous mailbox exports, similar to MoveMailbox.ps1 for synchronous mailbox moves? It looks like RTM version had Export-Mailbox, which I no longer see in SP1. Thanks.

Hi, To export mailbox in exchange 2010 SP1 you can use the cmdlet New-MailboxExportRequest Best regardsBest Regards Don't forget to mark it as answer if it helps

Thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention that I'm aware of the New-MailboxExportRequest cmdlet. That cmdlet is not real-time (synchronous). The request actually gets queued and there's a delay before it actually runs.

Sorry! But I think there's no other way to do that! thxBest Regards Don't forget to mark it as answer if it helps

I never found an alternative for the New-MailboxExportRequest, but I created the same experience with this script: #Queue a single request New-MailboxExportRequest -BatchName $BatchName -Mailbox $Mailbox.Alias -FilePath "$($ExportShare)\$($Mailbox.Alias).PST" #wait for request to complete while ((Get-MailboxExportRequest -BatchName $BatchName | Where {$_.Status -eq "Queued" -or $_.Status -eq "InProgress"})) { sleep 5 } Maybe it helps.
