Good Morning,
I'm playing with the new export to pst functionality in SP1 and managed to archive a number of mailboxes sucessfully.
However I'm running into problems with date filters. I'm in the UK where we express dates as DD/MM/YYYY.
The following command works just fine
New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox "journaling_mailbox" -ContentFilter {(Received -gt "01/08/2010") -and (Received -lt "02/08/2010")} -FilePath "\\server\Journaling_2010_M08.pst"
I open the pst and as expected have the mail for the 1st August, so it appears to correctly understand the date format.
However when I try with an end date of the end of August it fails
New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox "journaling_mailbox" -ContentFilter {(Received -gt "01/08/2010") -and (Received -lt "31/08/2010")} -FilePath "\\server\Journaling_
2010_M08.pst"
The provided ContentFilter value is invalid. ContentFilter is invalid. The value "31/08/2010" could not be converted to
type System.DateTime. --> The value "31/08/2010" could not be converted to type System.DateTime.
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: ((Received -gt "...t "31/08/2010"):String) [], ContentFilterInvalidPerm

For my purposes, archiving the journaling mailbox a month at a time a suitable workaround was to go from the 1st Aug to 1st Sept. But either I'm being dull or this looks like a bug? Any thoughts?
