A list of commands to see if a mailbox is corrupted

Every now and again there can be an issue with an Exchange mailbox, a way to test this is to use the MailBoxRepairRequest command to detect if there is an issue with corruption.

To start a detect for a particular mailbox

To view the progress for a particular repair request for a mailbox

Get-MailboxRepairRequest -Mailbox MAILBOXNAME

If progress shows that there is corruption, you can run the following command to repair it

#For all folders
New-MailboxRepairRequest -Mailbox MAILBOXNAME -CorruptionType ProvisionedFolder,SearchFolder, AggregateCounts,Folderview -Archive

#For a single folder
New-MailboxRepairRequest -Mailbox MAILBOXNAME -CorruptionType FolderView
