Hi,

*WARNING*
I know nothing about scripting (shame on me) and need help with the following:

I am running Exchange 2003 Ent. SP2 and I have multiple mailboxes I need to monitor.  Items sent to these mailboxes get automatically removed by a script and imported into our Imaging system.  So these mailboxes should be empty all the time.  If an item has been in the mailbox for more that 2 minutes and it has not been removed then that's an indication that something broke. 

I know there is an "Exchange_Mailbox" WMI Class and it has a TotalItems property.  Can powershell be used for this or vbscript?

I would like to be able to specify the mailboxes I want to monitor on the script and for the script to check the amount of items in those mailboxes and if the total number of items exceeds an amount I would like to receive an email notifying me.

Ideally, it would be nice for the script to check how long an item has been in the mailbox instead of checking for the total items, but I guess either one would work.

Your help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Josue
