Don’t worry though! It’s nothing too onerous – all is needed to get going is two things: Getting startedīefore you can run this script, there are a few things you need to set up first. The reason that Powershell is the right language for code like this is that it’s fairly easy for the enterprising administrator to modify to their needs. What I’ve heard is it would be useful to have some Powershell code that out-of-the box can import contacts into any Exchange mailbox. While this isn’t the actual code I used (I wrote my original code in C#), I’ve re-visited what I’ve done and listened to what others say they need. While Microsoft provide IMAP migration tools to move mail to Outlook Live (which I was lucky enough to beta test before it was widely available), no tools are provided to move other data such as contacts and calendars. When performing migrations between different systems, there’s always the case where the tools available don’t do the job out of the box – and although IMAP migration tools for Exchange and Outlook Live can be great for moving mail, there isn’t a decent free solution for importing contacts.įor a recent migration from a Unix system (Dovecot + SquirrelMail) to Outlook Live, I came across this very scenario.
