The FederatedIdentity parameter associates an on-premises Active Directory user with a user in the cloud.

ImportLiveId

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

This parameter applies to objects in the cloud-based service. It isn’t available for on-premises deployments.

The ImportLiveID parameter imports an unmanaged Windows Live ID into the cloud-based domain. An unmanaged Windows Live ID was created in the domain before the domain was enrolled in the cloud-based service.

Importing a Windows Live ID into the domain lets you save any settings that are associated with the Windows Live ID, like instant messaging contacts. However, the Windows Live ID is now subject to the security and privacy policies of the organization.

BypassLiveId

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

This parameter is reserved for internal Microsoft use.

Confirm

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The Confirm switch causes the command to pause processing and requires you to acknowledge what the command will do before processing continues. You don't have to specify a value with the Confirm switch.

Evicting a Windows Live ID from the domain lets you save any settings that are associated with the Windows Live ID, like instant messaging contacts.

ExternalDirectoryObjectId

Optional

System.String

This parameter is reserved for internal Microsoft use.

FirstName

Optional

System.String

The FirstName parameter specifies the first name of the mail user.

ImmutableId

Optional

System.String

The ImmutableId parameter is used by GAL synchronization (GALSync) and specifies a unique and immutable identifier in the form of an SMTP address for an Exchange mailbox that's used for federated delegation when requesting Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) tokens. If federation is configured for this mailbox and you don't set this parameter when you create the mailbox, Exchange will create the value for the immutable ID based upon the mailbox's ExchangeGUID and the federated account namespace, for example, 7a78e7c8-620e-4d85-99d3-c90d90f29699@mail.contoso.com. You must set the ImmutableId parameter if Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) is deployed to allow single sign-on into an off-premises mailbox and AD FS is configured to use a different attribute than ExchangeGUID for sign-on token requests. Both, Exchange and AD FS must request the same token for the same user to ensure proper functionality for a cross-premise Exchange deployment scenario.

Initials

Optional

System.String

The Initials parameter specifies the initials of the mail user.

LastName

Optional

System.String

The LastName parameter specifies the last name of the mail user.

MacAttachmentFormat

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory.Recipient.MacAttachmentFormat

• BinHex
  
  
• UuEncode
  
  
• AppleSingle
  
  
• AppleDouble
  
  

By default, this parameter is set to BinHex. The acceptable values for the MacAttachmentFormat parameter are dependent on the MessageFormat parameter. If the MessageFormat parameter is set to Text, you can only use BinHex or UuEncode values for this parameter. If the MessageFormat parameter is set to Mime, you can only use BinHex, AppleSingle, or AppleDouble values for this parameter.

MessageBodyFormat

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory.Recipient.MessageBodyFormat

The MessageBodyFormat parameter specifies the message body format for messages sent to the mail user. The valid values for this parameter are:

• Text
  
  
• Html
  
  
• TextAndHtml
  
  

By default, this parameter is set to TextAndHtml.

The MessageFormat and MessageBodyFormat parameters are interdependent. If the MessageFormat parameter is set to Mime, the MessageBodyFormat parameter can be set to any valid value. However, if the MessageFormat parameter is set to Text, the MessageBodyFormat parameter can only be set to Text. Therefore, if you want to set this parameter to Html or TextAndHtml, you must also set the MessageFormat parameter to Mime.

MessageFormat

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory.Recipient.MessageFormat

The MessageFormat parameter specifies the message format for messages sent to the mail user.

The valid values for this parameter are:

• Text
  
  
• Mime
  
  

By default, this parameter is set to Mime.

The MessageFormat and MessageBodyFormat parameters are interdependent. If the MessageFormat parameter is set to Mime, the MessageBodyFormat parameter can be set to any valid value. However, if the MessageFormat parameter is set to Text, the MessageBodyFormat parameter can only be set to Text. Therefore, if you want to change the MessageFormat parameter from Mime to Text, you must also change the MessageBodyFormat parameter to Text.

ModeratedBy

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.MultiValuedProperty

The ModeratedBy parameter specifies the users responsible for moderating the messages sent to this mail user. To designate more than one user, separate the users with commas.

This parameter is required if you set the ModerationEnabled parameter to $true. If you leave this parameter blank and there is a user already specified as the manager of this mail user, the ModeratedBy parameter is automatically set by the ManagedBy parameter of the mail user. Otherwise, an error is returned.

ModerationEnabled

Optional

System.Boolean

The ModerationEnabled parameter specifies whether to enable or disable moderation for the mail user. The two possible values for this parameter are $true or $false. To enable moderation, set this parameter to $true. To disable moderation, set this parameter to $false.

PartnerObjectId

Optional

System.Guid

PrimarySmtpAddress

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.SmtpAddress

The PrimarySmtpAddress parameter specifies the primary SMTP address for the mail user. By default, the primary SMTP address is generated based on the default e-mail address policy. If you specify a primary SMTP address by using this parameter, the command sets the EmailAddressPolicyEnabled attribute of the mail user to $false, and the e-mail addresses of this mail user aren't automatically updated based on e-mail address policies.

RemotePowerShellEnabled

Optional

System.Boolean

The RemotePowerShellEnabled parameter specifies whether the user can use Remote PowerShell. Remote PowerShell is required to open the Exchange Management Shell or the Exchange Management Console on Mailbox, Hub Transport, Unified Messaging, and Client Access servers. Access to Remote PowerShell is required even if you're trying to open the Shell or the console on the local server.

The valid values are $True and $False. The default value depends on the management role groups assigned to the user. For more information, see Overview of Exchange Management Shell.

• Always
  
  
• Internal
  
  
• Never
  
  

Set this parameter to Always if you want notifications to be sent to all senders.

Set this parameter to Internal if you want notifications to be sent only to the senders who are internal to your organization.
