Hi Guys.My name is Kostas.I am pretty excited to be in this community. :)

I have a question.

What are the steps for a hard delete of a users mailbox via Powershell?

There has been granted a soft delete of the users mailbox.

Apart from that when trying to authenticate and archive i receive an unknown exchange error followed by Correlations ID.

After soft delet

First use Remove-Mailbox -Identity "username" and then Get-Mailbox -Identity "username" -SoftDeleted | Remove-Mailbox -PermanentlyDelete. This should remove/delete it completely.
