SYMPTOMS
When you are using the command-line export utility and an export options file to export custom recipients, you may get a CSV file that contains only header information, or a CSV file that contains unwanted mailbox information instead of or in addition to the custom recipient information.



WORKAROUND
This problem usually results from over-configuring the export options file. If you want only to export custom recipients from Exchange, then start by using the following format in the export options file:

[Export] Basepoint=/o=/ou=/cn=Recipients Container= ExportObject=Remote 

NOTE: note there should be no spaces between the object parameters

Do not put an entry for HomeServer, because this will result in a CSV file that contains only headers and no other information. For more information about this, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 147854, "XADM: Custom Recipients DIR Export Creates Headers-Only CSV".

For more information about command-line export and the export options file, see the online Help (Admin /?) and pages 476-482 in the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator's Guide.
