Retrieving Last Access Time in Exchange Server 2000 Public Folder.
Hi All, Yes, you read it right! Exchange Server 2000. I want to create a script that retrieve information(ie. Last Access Time) of all the files that are place within the public folder of the Exchange Server 2000. I don't have any experience in this kind of scenario. Thanks in advance. Thanks,

Hi,PFDEVAdmin tool will help you to export details of all the files in the public folder. Blelow is the link of the same and some additional help on how to pull out the details. All you have to do is connect to the exchagne server with the help of pfdevadmin and go to tools and export properties to export all the detailshttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=635BE792-D8AD-49E3-ADA4-E2422C0AB424&displaylang=enhttp://www.msexchange.org/articles/PFDavAdmin-tool-Part2.htmlhttp://www.msexchange.org/articles/PFDavAdmin-tool-Part1.htmlRegards,Krishnahttp://smtpport25.wordpress.com

Im not familiar with thos tool. Does PFDEVAdmin tool can get the last view date? Any other option?

Actually PFDAVAdmin does not report Last Access Time because that data is not available through WebDAV protocol. Last Access Time is specific to each store, so you need to go to each individual public store to collect it. Also keep in mind that, Last Access Time can be updated unintentionally by file level virus scanning if you have setup on Exchange Server to scan M: drive and when folders are scanned, Last Access time is updated by virus scan so you may not get correct result... If you are looking for any programmaticapproachthen I would suggest you to post this query in ExchangeDevelopmentforum...

Hi,First, I agree with Amit's suggestion that this question is suitable for posting in Exchange Development forum. Additionally, I also do a research on the MSDN and find the relevant instruction for the last access time to be retrieved by using the script. Please check it as below:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa179856(EXCHG.65).aspxHope that is useful for you.ThanksAllen

Hi Allen, Thanks for the link, unfortunately the script is for Exchange 2k3 and up. Exchange_PublicFolders Class is only available in Exchange2k3, not in Exchange2k. What i can do is to follow the script and change the Instance Name and Namespace, but the problem is during reading the properties of Exchange2k, i cannot find any equivalent of Exchange_PublicFolders class in Exchange2k as per http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc750886.aspx . Thanks,
