There was previously a command search-mailbox (its deprecated now), that could copy content from a mailbox to another mailbox. I found an old post on the forums asking the same thing in 2019, is there still no way to use the new-compliancesearch (or any other command for that matter) for this purpose?

is the solution to manually export to a .pst and again manually import it? I actually have to use a outlook client..?

    You cannot directly copy the emails across to the target mailbox using the New-ComplianceSearchAction cmdlet. However, you can export the search results to a PST file and then import the PST.

    Except Outlook, you also can use network upload to bulk-import multiple PST files to Microsoft 365 mailboxes.
