2003 Public Folder archived items count

Hi all,

As part of a fact finding mission and with the prospect of just general requests from managers I need to find a way of doing a live count of archived messages in a public folder directory. We currently have Exchange 2003 for the Public Folders so Powershell's Get-PublicFolderStatistics cmdlet won't work.

Does anyone know of a way of listing or doing a count of messages within a Public Folder based on their message type (ipm.note.enterprisevault.shortcut) that will work with Exchange 2003 ?

I'm willing to try other methods but was thinking Powershell might be the easiest.

Any help would be great.
