Exchange 2010 Export mailboxes to PST files.

I've recently taken over exchange admin on an Exchange 2010 server which hasn't been properly maintained in years.  I have approximately 200 users that are no longer with the company and I would like to export their mailboxes to PST files for archival purposes.  I've hidden all these users from the GAL so now I at least have a criteria to filter on.   Can someone recommend a tool or a script to export these mailboxes only to PST.

Two options.

1. The Old Skool way is to use a Microsoft Utility called Exmerge. It is designed for export and import of multiple mailboxes to .PSTs. Can be obtained here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/details.aspx?id=2743 

2. The newer way is to just do it from Powershell. Export-mailbox is the command to use. You can script it to do a list.
