[ExchangeList] Re: Delete email from mailbox.

Are you on Exchange 2007 sp1? I have done this several times w\o issues. What is the error? There has been some import\export bugs fixed with RU4. If it is this error apply RU4 or go ahead and just do RU5.

 

Exmerge is not supported with 2007 but still works. If you are getting access denied issues; it’s best to start with creating a new service account and applying sendas\receive as.

 

An error occurs when you use the Export-mailbox or Restore-mailbox command to migrate certain mailboxes on Exchange Server 2007: "error code -1056749164

Or is there any way that Exmerge can be used to delete messages from mailbox. I had found one article on internet. I tried that but it hasn’t worked saying that user account does not have permission to access the mailbox store. My account is domain admin as well as exchange admin.

Hi James,

 

I tried command given in the link. Does it require Rollup update 4 for Exchange 2007. As it gave me error during the execution of this command. I found few articles suggesting the same but somehow lost those articles.

Export-mailbox. Article goes over scenario.

 

1. IT Emergency Response Process

In the course of daily operations of an IT Emergency Response organization, administrators need the ability to scan a large number of messages based on specified criteria, and perform mass deletion of any suspect email found. By using Export-Mailbox and the –DeleteContent parameter along with specific filter options, they are able to search and delete such messages.

Hi,

 

We have Exchange 2007 server with Service Pack1 and rollup update 2. One of our users accidentally sent a porn email to a distribution list. Now he has requested to delete that email from mailboxes of all users. We tried using Exmerge but it didn’t work. Can someone please help us to find some command or some tool through which we can delete that email from all the mailboxes?

 

Regards,

Amit Kapoor
