Exchange 2007 Upgrading your default Email Address Policy

After you migrated from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007, you receive an error when you try to edit your recipient policy “Default Policy”.

“Unable to edit the specified E-mail address policy. E-mail address policies created with legacy versions of Exchange must be upgraded using the ‘Set-EmailAddressPolicy’ task, with the Exchange 2007 Recipient Filter specified.”

Oké, let’s update the recipient policy! With the following command you can see the properties of this recipient policy.

Set-EmailAddressPolicy “Default Policy” -IncludedRecipients AllRecipients

  1. It’s strange to find out how many sites there are about this subject I don’t know if I’ll ever need to be back, but it is nice to know I found the one that provides a lot of valuable information if this should come up for me another time
