How to "empty" the data from a mailbox without deleting/re-creating
We are running Exchange 2007 w/sp1. My question is this -
We have training email/network accounts used for - well, training. After a training session, I'd like to be able to "empty" them of data, to make them blank and ready for the new training session. Something like "empty mailbox" or something?
Just want to clear out the mailboxes so that the "test data" from folks training in them is gone and give the trainer a pristine environment again.
Is there a script that will achieve this? An easier way?
Thanks.

Exmerge is not available with 2007 its replaced by the export-mailbox command line tool. It would not surprise me if they release a supported version for 2007.
Microsoft making things harder for the administrators.

Thanks a lot. I was really hoping it was easier than that. I'd rather go the MRM route than install Exchange on a 32-bit OS. That just seems - short sighted on Microsoft's part.
I do appreciate the responses.

You still can use exmerge with exchange 2007
