This cmdlet is available only in on-premises Exchange Server 2016.

Hello Dean, I had a mailuser assigned with exchange license (EXO) - removed from Exchange contacts and converted imidiately into MailBox. 

Once the Exchange license is removed it didn't revert back to mailUser, it's removed from Exchange mailboxes and remained User, or should I say AAD account.

Any way to convert this User back to mailUser?

Tnx
