Hi For an additional backup we are are exporting emails as a pst file from Exchange, which works well. However, whenever I add content parameters to filter particular dates the export fails without error.

New-MailboxExportRequest -ContentFilter {(Received -lt '01/30/2015') -and (Received -gt '01/26/
2015')} -Mailbox "firstname.surname" -Name MyExp -FilePath \\MyServer\Support$\PSTEXPTEST\test.pst

I've also tried a suggestion of replacing the curly brackets with double quotes but still no success.

Thanks to anyone who can help.

What is the exact error? can you post the event in here? because the command appears to be correct.

Hi,

Any updates on the same ?

The PS you are using, looks good to pull the result however, if you still unable to get the desired result, you may also consider on this automated solution(http://www.exchangemailboxtopst.org/) that should be an appropriate solution for you.

There is no error. It queues the task as expected, but when I check on it's progress it is marked as failed. The resulting PST file contains no emails.

Any ideas?

Hi,

i have seen this occure i user has existing migration batch og exportrequest.

Please run get-mailboxexportrequest and see if user is on the list.

And also check Get-MigrationStatistics.

Clear all With status finish to see if it helps.

Also Clear failed

No there's nothing on the export request list as I'd cleared all failures each time after it failed. The migration statistics applies to Exchange 2013, this is on 2010.

Any other ideas?

for 2010 its 

Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus InProgress (completed,failed and so on)
I did run a test with your command and its correct and working.
Since you already could run New-MailboxExportRequest i guess the account has permission to export mailbox.
After you run the mentioned command and press enter,it could take a while before it loads/change status to exporting.

I let it run overnight, but still no luck. It works but just fails, not sure why..
