Export large exchange mailboxes to pst file
Does anyone know of a good tool to export a large exchange mailbox to a pst file? This is for a law firm in which a few of the lawyers have very large mailboxes, up to 14gb in size. We are moving them over to a new exchange 2007 server and want to have all mailboxes exported to pst files.

ckeshav, this link if for exchange 2007 exporting. We are exporting from 2003 into 2007.
Use outlook or a 3rd-party utility for Exchange 2003. The native exchange "server-side" tool has a 2GB limit, so that is not an option in your case. Since you posted in the SBS zone, I'm guessing you only have a few users: Outlook should work great. If you need to automate the process then you'll need to go 3rd-party.

cqaliher, are you referring to the migwiz tool or exmerge?
migwiz is strictly a migration tool and not an export tool. I was referring to exmerge: 2 gig limit. Hence the need to use Outlook or a 3rd-party.

migwiz appears to allow for export to pst file. Would this not accomplish what I am after? Does it have a size limit?

Yes I was wondering if it was still an ansi format. While I can't really seem to find a decent 3rd party utility to export the mailboxes so it looks like we will be doing it manually from the outlook client. Not ideal but we have only about 25 mailboxes total, four of which are on the large size.
