The cmdlet gets the proper information back about the user and the distiguishedName; so I am not sure why it can not make an admin interface. Any help is greatly appreciated. Chris

Hi, Can u see any error message in EventViewer of your win7 system? Can you verify that following services are running on exchange mailbox server: - Microsoft Exchange Service Host - Microsoft Exchange Information Store Can you verify that following services are running on your win 7 system (if they exists): - Computer Browser - Network Connections - Workstation Regards,Laeeq Qazi|Team Lead(Exchange + Sharepoint + BES + DynamicsCRM) www.HostingController.com

Do you have sufficient rights for the account you're using to move mailboxes Santhosh Sivarajan | MCTS, MCSE (W2K3/W2K/NT4), MCSA (W2K3/W2K/MSG), CCNA, Network+ Houston, TX http://blogs.sivarajan.com/ http://publications.sivarajan.com/ This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

You have to give the right permission on the Mailbox that you want to Export Data From. In the command below the Admin01 would be the Account you have used to Login to the Windows 7 Machine.

I went and re-ran the above script, but it said that I already had the appropriate permissions on the user (I was confident that I had), I then went and re-checked the services (as in Laeeq Qazi's above suggestion) and all were running. I went back to PS, and ran the export-mailbox script and this morning it worked. Not sure what has changed, but it could have been services (as the VM has been restarted), or permissions. Thank you all for your responses. Chris
