Exchange 2010

Do you want to do this using VBA?

If Using VBA (which I assume) the following code might be handy.

I cannot test it on my machine since it involves servers (which I do not have).

I repeat the code here (written by someone else) since giving a reference only leads to "broken links" when pages are taken down in the future.

I hope this may help.

The link for this code is:

For a version of the code which uses CDOEXM check out the post at

Can this be done from powershell ?

DNRRP

I am using powershell not BBC.

Hi DNRRP,
A good powershell script you can have explore here to find out the list of all mailbox permissions that are accessing other mailboxs with permissions assigned.
Or, you can also have a look at this software (exchangeserverreporting.com) which seems a good choice for you. Hope, this helps you.
