You should be able to run it with the -WhatIf parameter to get an idea of
what the command will do.

I have never run it that way, but my understanding is it will delete any
message with any of those words. I do what you are doing this way:
Get-Mailbox -Server ServerName | Search-Mailbox -SearchQuery
'Subject:FW: Your student-loan assistance package' –DeleteContent
I got to head to a meeting, so the above was fast typed..dig into the way
above and test before you start deleting.

*Subject:* [Exchange] Removing an email from all mailboxes
Single Exchange 2007 server.
We had a little email virus ‘outbreak’ yesterday in which a message with
the subject of ‘check’ and a bad zip file got passed around to the bulk of
the mailboxes. I want to remove all of the bum messages and it looks like
this is what I need?
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Export-Mailbox -ContentKeywords check
the document as an attachment –DeleteContent
Will that just remove the messages with those specific content keywords,
or will that remove ANY message that has any of those words in the subject
or body? Don’t want to get carried away! J
Thanks all.
