    Is there a way to get messageId and other information when using search-mailbox command?

    Get-Mailbox | Search-Mailbox  -SearchQuery 'Subject:"Your bank statement"' -EstimateResultOnly

    One thing I tried was copying the mail in to TargetMailbox and then run GetMessageTrackingReport cmdlet but its not working. Example

    Get-Mailbox | Search-Mailbox -SearchQuery 'Subject:hello' -TargetMailbox 'kkk' -TargetFolder '123'

    Search-MessageTrackingReport -Identity "kkk" -ByPassDelegatehecking | %{Get-MessageTrackingReport -Identity $_.MessageTrackingReportID -DetailLevel Verbose -ByPassDelegateChecking}

    the above does not return anything event though 'kkk' has emails in it.

    In the future is there a way to get email contents like body/to/from/subject?

    Hi,

    Please use the below format:

    Use the Search-Mailbox cmdlet to search a mailbox and copy the results to a specified target mailbox, delete messages from the source mailbox, or both.

    Search-Mailbox [-DeleteContent <SwitchParameter>] <COMMON PARAMETERS>

    Search-Mailbox -TargetFolder <String> -TargetMailbox <MailboxIdParameter> [-DeleteContent <SwitchParameter>] [-LogLevel <Suppress | Basic | Full>] [-LogOnly <SwitchParameter>] <COMMON PARAMETERS>

    Search-Mailbox -EstimateResultOnly <SwitchParameter> <COMMON PARAMETERS>

    COMMON PARAMETERS: -Identity <MailboxOrMailUserIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-DoNotIncludeArchive <SwitchParameter>] [-Force <SwitchParameter>] [-IncludeUnsearchableItems <SwitchParameter>] [-SearchDumpster <SwitchParameter>] [-SearchDumpsterOnly <SwitchParameter>] [-SearchQuery <String>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]

    For Example:

    This example searches the mailbox of Joe Healy and copies the search results to the DiscoveryMailbox in the folder JoeHealy-ProjectHamilton.

    Search-Mailbox -Identity "Joe Healy" -SearchQuery "Subject:Project Hamilton" -TargetMailbox "DiscoveryMailbox" -TargetFolder "JoeHealy-ProjectHamilton" -LogLevel Full

    This example searches April Stewart's mailbox for messages that contain the phrase "Your bank statement" in the subject and logs the result in the SearchAndDeleteLog folder in the administrator's mailbox. Messages aren't copied to the target mailbox.

    Search-Mailbox -Identity "April Stewart" -SearchQuery 'Subject:"Your bank statement"' -TargetMailbox "administrator" -TargetFolder "SearchAndDeleteLog" -LogOnly -LogLevel Full

    This example searches April Stewart's mailbox for messages that contain the phrase "Your bank statement" in the subject and deletes the messages from the source mailbox. You have to be assigned the Mailbox Import Export management role to use the DeleteContent switch.

    Search-Mailbox -Identity "April Stewart" -SearchQuery 'Subject:"Your bank statement"' -DeleteContent

    This example searches all mailboxes in your organization for messages that contain the words "election", "candidate", or "vote". The search results are copied to the Discovery Search Mailbox in the folder AllMailboxes-Election.

    Get-Mailbox | Search-Mailbox -SearchQuery 'election OR candidate OR vote' -TargetMailbox "Discovery Search Mailbox" -TargetFolder "AllMailboxes-Election" -LogLevel Full

    Thanks

    The answer is still that Search cannot get what you want.  You must get the messages returned by a search to get the message contents.

    You can use the EWS API to search for messages and return that information.
