exporting mailboxes to PST on Exchange 2010

I went through the very good instructions here to export an Exchange 2010 mailbox to PST:
http://exchangeserverpro.com/export-mailboxes-exchange-server-2010-sp1/

But I kept getting errors when doing the mailbox export request.  I didn't track the error, but I'm about 90% sure that the error was related to the file path I was exporting to.  I was attempting to export to a file path of "\\servername\e$\filepath\username.pst"

Once I changed the export path to \\servername\sharename\username.pst - the export succeeded.

Stupid, but something to remember.
