> FYI: In the future, please try to give your posts a title that better describes what you are asking. "Urgent request for code" could be anything; "Need to get mailbox names" would help the right expert notice your post more quickly.

> Thanks! The above example does in fact work on 2007…can you show me what your typing? Here’s what I just did on a 2007 box:

> Get-MailBox -Database SalesDatabase | Select-Object -Property Name | Export-Csv -PAth c:\List.csv
