How to disable IMAP/POP3 globally but excluding a specific mailbox?
Hi, We want to disable IMAP/POP3 to entire organization, but allow a couple mailboxes to have those features. How can we approach it? Please help! Thanks in advance!
I called Microsoft today. There is the script to disable IMAP/POP for all mailboxes expect abc@abc.com.
Get-CASMailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | where {$_.Name -ne "abc"} | Set-CASMailbox -PopEnabled $false -ImapEnabled $false
Note: abc is the display name of mailbox abc@abc.com.
is this also including Shared Mailboxes that are licensed?
fyi, Configuring the CAS Mailbox Plan will help with future mailbox creations.
