If i place a permission an a Mailbox Folder with the add-mailboxfolderpermission command the rights are inherited to the subfolders of this folder, but if i take away the permission with the remove-mailboxfolderpermission command it affects only this folder. The subfolders are not affected and the permission still persists on the subfolders. Is there a way to delete folder permissions recursiv? Thank you

Hi, You have to run a pipeline command using Get-mailboxfolder and remove-mailboxfolderpermission The first one return the list of all folder and subfolder for a specific mailbox and the second one remove the permission. You proceed like this: Remove-MailboxFolderPermission ... | Get-MailboxFolder -Identity Peter -recurse thxBest Regards Don't forget to mark it as answer if it helps

If i place a permission an a Mailbox Folder with the add-mailboxfolderpermission command the rights are inherited to the subfolders of this folder, Hi Leihulong, I test it in my lab(Exchange 2010 SP1 rollup 5) and seems like the permission won't be inherited if you run the add-mailboxfolderpermission. Anyhow, you can try to run the cmdlet as Maher said to remove the permission on folder and its subfolders. Get-MailboxFolder -Identity Peter:\FolderName -Recurse | Remove-MailboxFolderPermission -User username Remove-MailboxFolderPermission http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd351181.aspx Frank Wang

Hi Leihulong, Any updates? Frank Wang

I need to remove all folder permissions from a mailbox for a specific user. The example above is specific to one folder and its subfolders. Is there a command I can use to remove user permissions from ALL folders in an Exchange mailbox(Exchange 2010 SP1)?

How do I remove Exchange mailbox folder permissions for ALL folders (recursively) without specifying anything? We are using Exchaneg 2010 SP1. I tried using following with no luck: Get-MailboxFolderStatistics <smtp> | %{Get-MailboxFolderPermission ("smtp:{0}" -f $_.FolderId)}| Remove-MailboxFolderPermission -User <smtp>
