easiest way to export user mailbox to pst from exchange 2007
we run exchange 2007 and when someone leaves the company we would like to make a pst backup of their mailbox.
We have tried the powershell method but can't seem to get it working since we have 64bit windows 7 machines running outlook 2007 (32bit).
any suggestions on an easy method or tool to use?

So when you run it from a 32bit machine with powershell, outlook, and the exchange management software, what is the error or problem you get?

we are looking for another solution as we only run 64 bit OS clients.
Try to run the command from exchange management shell from exchange server.
I don't think you could run the export-mailbox command from 32-bit machines..

Can you not export the .pst file from the users system from their own outlook?
file > open >import then chose export to file. You can either generate the .pst locally or put it in a network location for archiving.

We can expert from users machine, but we have many users to do this for and some of these mailboxes are not set up on their own machines.
