How to show total number of items and total mailbox siz... - 2.Jul.2008 1:51:56 PM

Does anyone know if there is a screen or view in Exchange 2007 that's similar to the "Mailboxes" view (the one under Admin Groups --> Your domain --> Servers --> Your server --> First Storage Group --> Mailboxes) in Exchange 2003? I used that view pretty often to get an idea of which of my users had the largest mailboxes, which ones were currently over their mailbox limit, etc..

Is there something similar in Exchange 2007? I'm sure there's probably some silly script that will export the information to a command prompt screen (which could, instead, be piped to a file of course) but, honestly, I'm lazy. I'd rather not have to export / import / "screw around with the numbers and crap" in Excel if I can avoid it. I can still see the information if I use my Exchange 2003 server but since that server will eventually go away, I want to find a replacement / equivalent "view" using Exchange 2007.

Any help will be appreciated.

No the gui does not display the info you are looking for. You must run a command in powershell to get this info. I was able to find enough posts to create the whole thing in Powershell and run it as a batch job via scheduiled tasks on my workstation. The excel piece is not that painful. Addtionally you can see the users whose mailboxes are in warning status or over limit. Here is the command.
get-mailboxstatistics -server sphspostal | export-csv c:\ExchangeMailboxStatistics.csv
