The AgeLimit parameter specifies the overall age limit on the folder. Replicas of this public folder are automatically deleted when the age limit is exceeded.

Confirm

Force

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

The Force switch specifies whether to suppress warning or confirmation messages. This switch can be used when the task is run programmatically and prompting for administrative input is inappropriate.

IssueWarningQuota

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Unlimited

The IssueWarningQuota parameter specifies the public folder size that triggers a warning to public folder owners stating that the folder is almost full.

Optional

Microsoft.Exchange.ExchangeSystem.ExDateTime

The LastMovedTime parameter specifies the date and time that the public folder was last moved.

Use the short date format defined in the Regional Options settings for the computer on which the command is run. For example, if the computer is configured to use the short date format mm/dd/yyyy, enter 03/01/2010 to specify March 1, 2010. You can enter the date only, or you can enter the date and time of day. If you enter the date and time of day, you must enclose the argument in quotation marks ("), for example, "10/05/2010 5:00 PM".

MaxItemSize

Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Unlimited

The MaxItemSize parameter specifies the maximum size for posted items. Items larger than the value of the MaxItemSize parameter are rejected. The default value is unlimited, which is 2 gigabytes. When you enter a value, qualify the value with one of the following units:

ProhibitPostQuota
