This article was previously published under Q160602

SUMMARY

When you use the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator Export function from the command line, if the Export is missing, only mailboxes will be exported regardless of the other settings.

MORE INFORMATION

The sample command line is:

Admin /e <Export file> /d directory server name /o <options file>

Actual Example:

Admin /e Output.csv /d Myserver /o Export.ini

Example of Export.ini. This will export only custom recipients: 
   [Export]
   Basepoint=/o=Microsoft/ou=wonderland/cn=Recipients
   Homeserver=Myserver
   ExportObject=Remote

when you remove the [Export], only mailboxes are exported. This will export only mailboxes: 
   Basepoint=/o=Microsoft/ou=wonderland/cn=Recipients
   Homeserver=Myserver
   ExportObject=Remote
