I'm looking for a way of pulling users contacts email addresses out of Exchange 2010 SP1 at the server. Can this be done with a powershell query? Or can this even be done at all?

Explain please Contacts that users has in their profiles or contacts you have in AD?

Explain please Contacts that users has in their profiles or contacts you have in AD? Contacts that users have.

contacts that users have are part of Outlook and do not get ported over to the server. You best bet is to export the contacts from outlook to a pst or excel file. Automate the export if you have a lot of users.

contacts that users have are part of Outlook and do not get ported over to the server. How is this true? If a users PC with Outlook installed fails, when the user re-attaches with OWA or a new PC their contacts are available from the Server. I am asking if there is a way to pull out the email addresses from user contacts ON Exchange. If Outlook has to be used, that's fine, HOW do you do it for all users and just the email addresses of their contacts?

Your right....brain freeze Export-mailbox would allow you to export just the contacts. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998579.aspx Once the export is done then some other tool to extract the email addresses. I think export to excel from outlook client would be easier to manipulate the data you need.

Hiya, Yes this can be done with Powershell or third party tools as suggested by other replies. I've answered this question elsewhere - here's a link to the answer and the original script below, which requires the EWS Managed API $mail="user@contoso.com" $outputfile=".\output.csv" # Set the path to your copy of EWS Managed API $dllpath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\Web Services\1.1\Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.dll" # Load the Assembly [void][Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($dllpath) # Create a new Exchange service object $service = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeService # Uncomment to set credentials, otherwise uses logged on user #$service.credentials = new-object System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domain"); # Uncomment (and comment URL below) to Autodiscover using the mail address set above $service.AutodiscoverUrl($mail) # Or set it manually #$service.Url = new-object Uri("https://mail.contoso.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx"); # Specify contacts folder and item count $view = New-Object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ItemView(10000,0) # Retrieve the data from the folder $findResults = $service.FindItems([Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.WellKnownFolderName]::Contacts,$view) # Output header to file '"FileAs","DisplayName","GivenName","Initials","MiddleName","Surname","NickName","CompanyName","EmailAddress1","EmailAddress2","Address1","Address2","PhoneNumber1","PhoneNumber2","PhoneNumber3","PhoneNumber4","JobTitle"' | Out-File -Encoding ASCII -FilePath $outputfile # Loop thru results and output line to file. foreach ($item in $findResults.Items) { """$($item.FileAs)"",""$($item.DisplayName)"",""$($item.GivenName)"",""$($item.Initials)"",""$($item.MiddleName)"",""$($item.Surname)"",""$($item.NickName)"",""$($item.CompanyName)"",""$($item.EmailAddresses[0].Address)"",""$($item.EmailAddresses[1].Address)"",""$($item.PhysicalAddresses[0].Street), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[0].City), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[0].State), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[0].CountryOrRegion), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[0].PostalCode)"",""$($item.PhysicalAddresses[1].Street), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[1].City), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[1].State), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[1].CountryOrRegion), $($item.PhysicalAddresses[1].PostalCode)"",""$($item.PhoneNumbers[0])"",""$($item.PhoneNumbers[1])"",""$($item.PhoneNumbers[2])"",""$($item.PhoneNumbers[3]),$($item.JobTitle)""" | Out-File -Encoding ASCII -FilePath $outputfile -Append } Steve Steve Goodman Check out my Blog for more Exchange info or find me on Twitter
