Using Export-Mailbox CmdLet to export to PST file

In order to export mail to a PST file, EMS requires an Outlook MAPI to be present. Otherwise,

11-17-2008_Error_ExportMailboxNot64bitCapable

That means you must use 32-bit version of the Exchange Management Tools on an Outlook-installed workstation because 64bit EMS process cannot load 32-bit MAPI subsystem.

Thus, I quickly ran through a Vista 32bit set up steps.

1. Install Outlook

2. Install IIS Requirements

11-19-2008-IIS_Options_Ex2k7MgmtTools

3. Install 32bit Exchange Management Tools, here.

Done!
