Delete mailbox content

Pergunta
-
I should delete all mailboxes with a certain domain (e.g. daniele@contoso.com and not giovanni@microsoft.it) in a range of data.
The command for all the boxes should be:
foreach ($ mailbox in (get-mailbox)) {Search-Mailbox -id $ mailbox -SearchQuery '(Received: 01/01/2010..31/03/2020)' -DeleteContent -Force}
But how can I filter by domain?sexta-feira, 17 de julho de 2020 15:24

Hi,
please use the code button when posting code. It makes reading it so much easier and copying it possible.
To filter by domain (I assume, we are talking about the *primary* SMTP address since both Daniele and Giovanni could easily have an alias from the other domain), just modiy your Get-Mailbox selection:
Get-Mailbox -Filter "WindowsEmailAddress -like '*@contoso.com'"

Hi Daniele,
The cmdlet below can also be used for your Get-Mailbox selection:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Where-Object {($_.PrimarySMTPAddress -like "*@contoso.com")}
I tested in my lab using the command below to delete mailbox content within contoso.com and it works fine:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Where-Object {($_.PrimarySMTPAddress -like "*@contoso.com")} | Search-Mailbox -SearchQuery {Received:"2020/1/1..2020/3/31"} -DeleteContent -Force
Before deleting the mailbox content, you can replace "-DeleteContent -Force" with "-EstimateResultOnly" to have a look at the estimated number of the items that would be deleted.
Hope this can be helpful.

Hi, thanks for the tips.
Evgeny's string works, but Yuki's doesn't work in my case.
So I solved it like this:foreach ($mailbox in (Get-Mailbox -Filter "WindowsEmailAddress -like '*@contoso.it'")) {Search-Mailbox -id $mailbox -SearchQuery '(Ricevuti:20/07/2020..20/07/2020)' -DeleteContent -Force}
Obviously the date must be changed according to your format and "Ricevuti" in Italian must be written in the exchange installation language.
Thank you all.
