SUMMARY

This article describes how to export recipients on a per server basis, using the export functionality of the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program.

MORE INFORMATION

To export recipients as described in Summary, do the following:
  1. Create an Export.ini file with the following contents: 
       [export]
   HomeServer=<server name>
   Basepoint=/o=<org>/ou=<site>/cn=recipients
   ExportObject=recipients

    Where <server name> is the name of the server from which you wish to export the recipients. <org> and <site> are the organization and site names as seen in the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program's containers view.
  2. Run the following command from a Windows NT VDM (command prompt), or place it in the properties of an icon:

    admin /e <path>\export.csv /d <server name> /o <path>\mygal.ini

    In this case, <path> is the complete path to the file including the drive letter and subdirectory. <server name> is the name of the server from which the directory will be exported.

    This will create a comma delimited file that contains the all mailboxes created on the specified server.
  3. To export all the users on a server, using the Administrator program's graphical user interface, select Directory Export from the Tools menu.
  4. Select the required server in the MS Exchange Server and Home server list boxes.
  5. Specify the file to export the data to, and click the Export button.
