Before You Begin
To run the Uninstall-TransportAgent cmdlet on a computer that has the Edge Transport server role installed, you must be a member of the local Administrators group on that computer.
To run the Uninstall-TransportAgent cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:
- Exchange Server Administrator role and local Administrators
group for the target server
For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Permission Considerations.
