Archiving Exchange 2010 PST
Exchange 2003 had a very useful utility called ExMerge that can be used to backup a Mailbox into a PST file. I like to use it to 'archive' the account before permanent closure (ie, after resignations). Unfortunately, this tool is no longer available on Exchange 2010. The good thing is, it's not difficult to do using the exchange console. Here's how. Open Exchange Management Console Enter the following: New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox "{mailbox name}" -FilePath "\\localhost\d$\archive\{mailbox name}.pst" Press enter The destination path has to be a valid UNC, so I used the d$ share to do this on my server.
