New-mailbox creation in exchange 2010 using power shell
Hi, I tested this & I believe this is because of the parameter 'Phone' is not working as expected in 'New-Mailbox' cmdlet. Try the same cmdlet without -Phone parameter & that should work. Then you may run Set-Mailbox cmdlet with -Phone to append the Ph#. ------------------------------------------------------------- Mark this as Answer if it answers your question. -------------------------------------------------------------Thank You!

Actually, it is working as expected. Note in the documentation: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997663.aspx the Phone parameter is supported only with the Room parameter. Further, if you look at the Set-Mailbox cmdlet documentation, you will see that the Phone property is not supported. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123981.aspx Use Set-User to apply the phone number. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998221.aspxEd Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."

I don't think you're giving us the complete cmdlet the way you're using it.Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."
