Detailed Description

You can use the Set-Contact cmdlet to modify the settings of contact objects that are visible in Active Directory Users and Computers. If the contact is mail-enabled, use the Set-MailContact cmdlet to modify the contact's e-mail settings that aren't available by using the Set-Contact cmdlet.

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 "Recipient Provisioning Permissions" section in the Mailbox Permissions topic.
