Exchange 2010 - Assigning Access to All Mailboxes
Hello,
I was reading the following article on Experts Exchange regarding providing access to a user and/or group for allowing access to all Exchange 2010 mailboxes.
I brought this to the attention of an colleague, and he mentioned that this syntax would be another option.
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize unlimited -Filter {RecipientTypeDetails -eq 'UserMailbox'} | Add-Mailboxpermission -User <Identity> -AccessRights FullAccess -InheritanceType All –Automapping $False
The section I bolded, is that really necessary to use in this command string? What gain would there be from using this vs the syntax originally provided in the link, if any.
Thanks.

Amit,
Just to confirm, by running the command below, there should be no negative affects against my Exchange environment, correct?
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize unlimited -Filter {RecipientTypeDetails -eq 'UserMailbox'} | Add-Mailboxpermission -User Administrator -AccessRights FullAccess -InheritanceType All –Automapping $False
Since its using the -User command, would it be possible to place a AD Group name there instead?
Thanks.

Thanks.
This command will just add the permission. So no impact.

What about adding an AD group in place of the individual user?

With that command I posted above, its calling out the -User function, however you should be able to specify a AD Group there as well, if not mistaken?
Thanks.
