Get number of emails in a folder by date

Question

_{Wednesday, September 16, 2015 11:16 AM}

Hello!

Is there a way to get the number of emails in a mailbox folder between a date range?

I have tried Get-MailboxFolderStatistics, but it not allows date ranges.

Thanks!

Hi,

New-MailboxSearch will allow you to get all emails within a certain date range and copy to another mailbox: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd298064(v=exchg.150).aspx although I'm not sure how you'll be able to limit this to a particular folder.

If you only need to export email for a particular date range then use New-MailboxSearch with the -EstimateOnly switch. If you need to get the email count for a particular folder in a mailbox then take a look at Get-MailboxFolderStatistics: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996762(v=exchg.150).aspx.

Check you have the correct permissions before using either cmdlet. 

Let me know if this answers your question.

Thanks.
