I am trying to setup a shared mailbox via Windows PowerShell for our Exchange account.<br />
<br />
This is how far I have gotten.<br />
<br />
1. $LiveCred = Get-Credential<br />
2. $Session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri <a href="https://ps.outlook.com/powershell/" rel="ugc">https://ps.outlook.com/powershell/</a>&nbsp;-Credential $LiveCred -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection<br />
3. Import-PSSession $Session<br />
<br />
Now when I try to enter the command: <br />
New-Mailbox -Name &quot;Shared Mailbox&quot; -Alias Shared -Shared <br />
I receive an error message stating <br />
&quot;The term 'New-Mailbox' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the<br />
&nbsp;spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.<br />

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
