Detailed Description

The Update-EmailAddressPolicy cmdlet allows administrators to apply an e-mail address policy to all recipients. This command queries for all recipients that match the specified e-mail address policy and saves the objects to the Active Directory directory service.

To run the Update-EmailAddressPolicy cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:

  • Exchange Server Administrator role and local Administrators group for the target server
