Taking control of Exchange 2010 Public Folders

Need a step by step solution.
I moved from a 2003 Exchange Server and I used Exmerge to export all boxes out to include public folders. I then imported at the client level. I then mounted the public.pst from my outlook account (Full Admin + Exchange Servers) and copied one by one into the new public folders. I have done this many of times in the past on 2003 exchange. But now I can not right click any of the folders and see "permissions" tab. There is one folder that I have full control of and I have no clue how or why. I was reading on how to take ownership thru powershell, but for some reason - I am just not getting it. I can not delete them either.
So Again I need a Step by Step.

Thanks,

This is what I am doing:

1: Open Powershell

Copy paste

PS C:\Users\Administrator> Get-PublicFolder "\pool" -Recurse | Add-PublicFolderClientPermission -AccessRights Owner -User ABC.com\Lowell

This is what I get:

The term 'Get-PublicFolder' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Chec
k the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

You need to use Exchange management Shell to run the commands..
Can you please tell me what is the version of Exchange ?

Get-PublicFolder (This is surely a E2k10 command)
