I need to remove an email from multiple exchange online mailboxes
PowerShell & Exchange Online. We had an online crime tips email sent to a distribution group in or organization. It has sensitive information related to an investigative case we're working on. We are a Law Enforcement Agency. I can connect to exchange with PowerShell but haven't been able to remove the message. Anyone have the proper syntax or guidance to share? Thank you!

Your situation may be complicated by discovery holds, litigation hold, retention policy, and the like. If Explorer didn't do the trick or you need an automated approach in these sensitive situations, feel free to send me a direct message.

I think it might even be built in now and you might not need to download it, but that is where you should start your research. Sorry I can't provide an exact command but this tool will do what you are wanting to do.
