Find The Total Number Of Mailboxes In Your Organization…

How can you quickly find the total number of mailboxes in your organization? You can do it now by running a shell command.

Get-Mailbox | Measure-Object

You can further customize the command to your  requirements. Let’s say that you want to find out the mailboxes in one particular database or one particular server. You can find it by adding more switches to the above command. Run the following…

Get-Mailbox –database dbname | Measure-Object

Get-Mailbox –Server servername | Measure-Object

If you have a bigger organization, resultsize has to be added so that it picks all the mailboxes.

Thanks.
