Get-Mailboxes

The Need:
Today I wanted to quickly list all mailboxes on an Exchange 2003 server without going through the hassle of a million mouse clicks in ESM. This simple script was just what I needed. It prompts me for a server then lists the mailboxes and size going from largest to smallest.



The Script:
#A simple script to look at the mailboxes on an Exchange 2003 Server.
Function Get-Mailboxes {
$ExchServer = Read-Host "Which Exchange Server?"
gwmi -namespace root\microsoftexchangev2 Exchange_Mailbox -comp $ExchServer |
select Mailboxdisplayname,Size | sort size -Descending | Format-Table -Auto
}
