	$FolderName="\Client XX\"+$PF.Folder
	Enable-MailPublicFolder -Identity $FolderName
	Set-MailPublicFolder -Identity $FolderName -PrimaySmtpAddress $PF.Email -EmailAddressPolicyEnabled $False

Please save the code to a file with extension .ps1 and execute it from Exchange Management Shell. Exchange Management Shell is the powershell command prompt for Exchange. Once you open EMS, browse to the location where .ps1 file stored. You can execute the file by ./<filename>.ps1. For example if you have named the file as PFCreate.ps1 the execute ./PFCreate.ps1
