Answered MailboxExportRequest -ContentFilter query

    I have seen lots of other posts where people run a New-MailboxExportRequest using the ContentFilter switch and get an empty PST but I can't figure out a solution to the query I am trying to run:

    New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox DOMAIN\Username -ContentFilter {(Sender -eq 'user@hotmail.com') -or (Participants -eq 'user@hotmail.com')} -FilePath "\\SERVER\UNC path\test.pst"

    The request completes but no content in the PST just folders.  I am trying to export all emails to/from the external SMTP address user@hotmail.com.

    Any ideas please?

    Hi Tippers,

    I tested the cmdlet and same result as yours.

    I'm researching the issue and will update it soon.

    Hi Tippers,

    It seems a bug in Exchange 2012 SP2, so I suggest we wait for the next RU to be released.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Is it a known issue or does it need bringing to the attention of Microsoft?

    Also, when is the next RU scheduled for?

    I have recently installed RU5 for SP2 and tried the query again but the same result, an empty PST file.  Is this a bug or is my query syntax incorrect?

    Try this:

    New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox Username -ContentFilter {All -like "*user@hotmail.com*"} -FilePath "\\SERVER\UNC path\test.pst"
