Export-Mailbox on Disconnected Mailboxes?
Is it possible to export disconnected mailboxes to a PST file using the Export-Mailbox command?
I have a ton of deleted users withdisconnected mailboxes that I need to archive before deleting.
Thanks!

There is an option on the properties of the database to preserve their mailboxes until a full backup has occured, but the export-mailbox requires an attached account. You can make a test account if necessary, then delete when done. for a lot of users, i can envision a powershell script to add accounts, attach mailboxes based on disconnected status, export then delete...

Per my knowledge, export-mailbox cannot export disconnected mailboxes as itll query disconnected mailboxs owner info, and thats the things disconnected mailboxes didnt have any more. You will get related error
