To create a shared Exchange 2007 mailbox you must use the Exchange Management Shell (EMS). You won't be able to share a mailbox with the EMC. You would use the new-mailbox cmdlet with the –Share switch parameter (this can also be done using the Exchange Management Console but it would take you a little longer): new-mailbox -alias "geeks" -name "GeekGroupMailbox" -database "mvexccr01\SG3\MBDB03" -org "net4geeks.com/Accounts" -shared -UserPrincipalName

There are several cmdlets in Exchange 2007 that are used to manage and review permissions. For the purposes of granting access to the shared mailbox the cmdlets we are interested in are as follows: Add-MailboxPermissionAdd-ADPermissionTo utilize these cmdlets to delegate access to our shared mailbox we would use the following steps: - To grant the group nerds full access to the shared mailbox: get-mailbox -identity "geeks" | Add-MailboxPermission -user "nerds" -accessrights 'FullAccess'
- To grant the group nerds modify access to the mailbox’s “Personal Information” attributes: get-mailbox -identity "geeks" | Add-MailboxPermission -user "nerds" -AccessRights:ReadProperty, WriteProperty -properties 'Personal Information' -extendedrights 'Send-As'
