Microsoft Outlook won’t open add-ins problem

If we are trying to run Microsoft Outlook without success, we can check add-ins used in Outlook

Try to run Microsoft Outlook in safe mode like below:

Outlook.exe /safe

 

If Outlook will start in safe mode, go to Add-ins options and disable any 3rd party add-ins you see:

  • On the File tab, click the Options category
  • Click Add-ins
  • Select COM Add-ins from the Manage box, and then click Go
  • Click to clear the check box for any add-ins that you want to disable
  • Click OK, and then restart Outlook

 

If it doesn’t help, follow this article:

Exchange 2010 get Mailbox Permissions

Exchange 2010 MailboxPermission

Last time we explained how to add permissions to mailbox or mailbox folder in Microsoft Exchange 2010.

But what if we need to check users permissions for mailboxes ?

To check permissions assigned to mailbox we need to use Get-MailboxPermission CMDlet.

But if we run:

Get-MailboxPermission JSmith

we will get list of all permissions including owner and inherited permissions

W can filter permissions by adding where with specified options like below, where we don’t want to get owners permissions and inherited permissions in output list:

Get-MailboxPermission JSmith | where {$_.user.ToString() -ne "NT AUTHORITY\SELF" -and $_.IsInherited -eq $false}

 

If we need to check all mailboxes on server MX01 we need to add Get-Mailbox and pipline output to Get-MailboxPermission like below:

Get-Mailbox -server MX01 -ResutlSize Unlimited | Get-MailboxPermission JSmith | where {$_.user.ToString() -ne "NT AUTHORITY\SELF" -and $_.IsInherited -eq $false}

 

To check only Send-As permissions we can run following command:

Get-Mailbox -server MX01 -ResultSize Unlimited | Get-ADPermission | where {($_.ExtendedRights -like “*Send-As*”) -and ($_.IsInherited -eq $false) -and -not ($_.User.ToString() -like “NT AUTHORITY\SELF”)}

 

But if we want to list permissions to mailbox folder we have to use Get-MailboxFolderPermission CMDlet and choose folder to check.

This example will check permissions to JSmith mailbox calendar folder:

Get-MailboxFolderPermission –identity “JSmith*:\Calendar”
