Give rights to see private items via Exchange Management Shell

Hi

Is there a way to give away this permission via EMS? Instead of opening the other mailbox via a new Outlook profile and give delagate permission to see private items.

The problem is that I cant move folders with subfolders in a shared mailbox because it might contain private items.

I believe this is a limitation within Outlook but there are two ways to assign permissions within EMS
The first method gives access to all content within the mailbox
Add-MailboxPermission Owner -User Delegate -AccessRights FullAccess

The second method can be used to add permissions to a folder and all subfolders
ForEach($f in (Get-MailboxFolderStatistics Owner | Where { $_.FolderPath.Contains("/RootFolder") -eq $True } ) ) {
$fname = "Owner:" + $f.FolderPath.Replace("/","\");
Add-MailboxFolderPermission $fname -User Delegate -AccessRights Owner }

Neither of these will give the delegate send as permissions, only mailbox access

Thank you, yes i tried the previous sugestion but it didnt give the permissions needed, nice to give full mailbox-access to manye ppl though. EWS is probably the way to go, I will have a look at it during this week. Thanks to everybody for sugestions! :-)
