Detailed Description

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To see what permissions you need, see the "User options" entry in the Client Access Permissions topic.

Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Identity

Required

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.MailboxIdParameter

The Identity parameter identifies the mailbox. You can use one of the following values:

  • GUID

  • Distinguished name (DN)

  • Domain\Account

  • User principal name (UPN)

  • LegacyExchangeDN

  • SmtpAddress

  • Alias

DomainController

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn

The DomainController parameter specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that retrieves data from Active Directory.

VerifyDefaultFolderNameLanguage

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The VerifyDefaultFolderNameLangugage parameter specifies whether the DefaultFolderNameMatchingUserLanguage property returned by the task indicates whether the mailbox default folder names are localized with the language specified for the mailbox. If the VerifyDefaultFolderNameLangugage parameter is set to $true, the DefaultFolderNameMatchingUserLanguage property returned by the task indicates whether the mailbox default folder names are localized with the language specified for the mailbox. If this parameter isn't specified, the property isn't returned by the task. This parameter can only be used by the mailbox owner. If a non-mailbox-owner tries to run the command on the mailbox with this parameter, an error is reported. The default value is $false.
