The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

MAPI error when using export-mailbox cmdlet

Tags: Microsoft, Exchange, 2007, export-mailbox
I'm trying to set up a quick & dirty mail archive for one of my users in Exchange 2007. The idea is to archive off to .pst file his mail items by quarter years (Q1,Q2 etc). Using the command:

export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath testpath\test.pst -enddate "01/03/2007"

I come up against this error:

Error occurred in the step: Moving messages. Failed to copy messages to the destination mailbox store with error: MAPI or an unspecified service provider. ID no: 00000000-0000-00000000, error code: -1056749164

Which I understand is a fairly standard permissions error. Problem is that I know the permissions are set correctly and can test this by removing the -enddate parameter, which results in a successful export. After investigating a bit, I worked out that the original command seems to fall over when it hits a subfolder, and so have tested this by using the -includefolders parameter. The command:

export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath testpath\test.pst -includefolders '\inbox' -enddate "01/03/2007"

will fail if there are any subfolders under '\inbox'. Add the names of the subfolders:

export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath testpath\test.pst -includefolders '\inbox\subfolder1' -enddate "01/03/2007"

and as long as those subfolders don't have any subfolders, I will get a successful export.

If anyone can spot something I'm doing wrong, I'm all ears because this quick and dirty solution is so far not very quick and is making me pretty dirty. All help much appreciated.
