How to extract Exchange contacts of a user.

Sorry,

You can not.

Thanks Pit,

On the Archive Task Dialog in EmailXtract, on the "Item Types" tab, it has a check box for Contacts.

So to confirm, does EX archive all the items on this tab but not just allow them to be extracted?
Meetings
Appointments
journal entries
sticky notes
posted messages
other
email messages
tasks
contacts
reports
files

essentially yes, at least you can't restore them in any sort of logical way. you can search for contacts in the EmailXtract application on the server, but you can't export them from there.

I just had this issue here and essentially purged everyones contacts older than a year. I basically DR'd my exchange environment and ex-merged everything back in. It was the quickest and easiest way to get contacts back for a user.

Hi Wiser,

As mentioned by another user EX does archive different types of contents but it only exports emails.

Thanks,
Rajan

Actually, I saw it with my own eyes, a full export of a users mail using the EmailXtender Outlook Plug-in had exported calendar and contact items.
