Export-QuarantineMessage

Reference

Module:: ExchangePowerShell

Applies to:: Exchange Online, Security & Compliance, Exchange Online Protection

This cmdlet is available only in the cloud-based service.

Use the Export-QuarantineMessage cmdlet to export quarantined messages and files from your cloud-based organization. Messages are exported to .eml message files so you can open them in Outlook.

For files that were quarantined by Safe Attachments for SharePoint, OneDrive, and Microsoft Teams, the files are exported in Base64 format.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Description

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

$e = Export-QuarantineMessage -Identity b28e0706-e50e-4c33-17e8-08daf2898d15\e939baaf-9dac-6126-2137-b82abf373159

$txt = [System.Text.Encoding]::Ascii.GetString([System.Convert]::FromBase64String($e.eml))

[IO.File]::WriteAllText("C:\My Documents\Quarantined Message.eml", $txt)

This example exports the specified message that was quarantined as spam:

The first command exports the quarantined message to the variable $e. The message is stored in the Eml property (the $e.eml value) as Base64 (based on the $e.BodyEncoding value).
The second command converts the Eml property from Base64 to ASCII text and stores the result in the variable $txt.
The third command writes the quarantined message to the specified .eml file.

Note: Don't enclose the Identity value in quotation marks (you might get an error).

Example 2

$f = Export-QuarantineMessage -Identity 9c6bb3e8-db9e-4823-9759-08d594179bd3\7fec89fe-41b0-ae67-4887-5bede017d111

$bytes = [Convert]::FromBase64String($f.eml)

[IO.File]::WriteAllBytes("C:\My Documents\Quarantined Message with Attachments.eml", $bytes)

This example exports the specified message with attachments that was quarantined as malware:

The first command exports the quarantined message and attachments to the variable $f. The message and attachments are stored in the Eml property (the $f.eml value) as Base64 (based on the $f.BodyEncoding value).
The second command converts the Eml property from Base64 to bytes and stores the result in the variable $bytes.
The third command writes the quarantined message and attachments to the specified .eml file.

Parameters

-CompressOutput

The CompressOutput switch exports the message as a compressed .zip file. You don't need to specify a value with this switch.

For exported messages, including messages with attachments, the .zip file contains a folder that's named after the first GUID value in the Identity. The folder contains the .eml message that's named after the second GUID value in the Identity.

-Identities

The Identities parameter identifies quarantined messages for bulk operations. You identify the messages by using the syntax: value1,value2...valueN.

You can find the Identity value for a quarantined message by using the Get-QuarantineMessage cmdlet.

When you use this parameter, the Identity parameter is required, but the value is ignored. For example, use the value 000 for the Identity parameter.
