Overview of this book

PowerShell has become one of the most important skills in an Exchange administrator's armory. PowerShell has proved its mettle so widely that, if you're not already starting to learn PowerShell, then you're falling behind the industry. It isn't difficult to learn PowerShell at all. In fact, if you've ever run commands from a CMD prompt, then you'll be able to start using PowerShell straightaway. This book will walk you through the essentials of PowerShell in Microsoft Exchange Server and make sure you understand its nitty gritty effectively. You will first walk through the core concepts of PowerShell and their applications. This book discusses ways to automate tasks and activities that are performed by Exchange administrators and that otherwise take a lot of manual effort. Microsoft Exchange PowerShell Essentials will provide all the required details for Active Directory, System, and Exchange administrators to help them understand Windows PowerShell and build the required scripts to manage the Exchange Infrastructure.

Creating custom folders in Mailboxes


The following code in the Program.cs file will create a folder under the inbox using the FolderClass property value of the IPF.Note. The folder called DisplayName sets the display name as Special Projects. The folder.save method will save it under the inbox folder. The rest of the code is used to create the instance of the ExchangeService object. It passes the user credentials and sets the AutodiscoverURL as discussed in the previous section:

using System;
using Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data;

namespace CreateFoldersthroughEWS
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            ExchangeService Exchange2013 = new ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2013_SP1);

            Exchange2013.UseDefaultCredentials = true;

            Exchange2013.AutodiscoverUrl("[email protected]");

            // Create a folder called Special Projects under inbox
            Folder folder = new Folder(Exchange2013);
