Exchange 2010 Powershell Commands

[fighting_mav]

Hi @all,

I ve installed a rel 6.5 ICS with unified messaging - exchange 2010 without plug-in - works fine

BUT is there a way to get the fucll permission an send as permission to all (or nearly all) mailboxes automaticly ? It' s like a Role-play game if you ve to click user by user an set permissions ....


I am thinking about the powershell commands ... any idea?


thx !!!!

That really made me smile — comparing the manual mailbox permission setup to a role-play game is spot on . Luckily, PowerShell helps you skip the “level grinding.” For example, you can run something like:

Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Add-MailboxPermission -User "YourAdminAccount" -AccessRights FullAccess -InheritanceType All


and for Send As:

Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Add-ADPermission -User "YourAdminAccount" -ExtendedRights "Send As"


That way you don’t have to click mailbox by mailbox. Just be careful with broad permissions — it’s powerful, but sometimes too much access can cause issues if not controlled.
