Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Confirm |
Optional |
System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter |
The Confirm parameter 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 parameter. |
|
DomainController |
Optional |
Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn |
To specify the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain controller that writes this configuration change to the Active Directory directory service, include the DomainController parameter on the command. The DomainController parameter is not supported on computers that run the Edge Transport server role. The Edge Transport server role reads and writes only to the local ADAM instance. |

Identity |
Optional |
Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ServerIdParameter |
This parameter specifies the server that retrieves the anti-spam updates from Microsoft Updates. |
|
WhatIf |
Optional |
System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter |
The WhatIf parameter instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf parameter, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf parameter. |
Detailed Description
This cmdlet disables the retrieval of anti-spam updates. No change is made to the opt-in status of the server. For more information, see How to Configure Anti-Spam Automatic Updates.
To run the Disable-AntispamUpdates cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:
- Exchange Server Administrator role and local Administrators
group for the target server
