Remove X500 and X400 addresses

Question

Hallo,
In the deprovisioning process we add "_" to each email addresses like you see on below script:

# Get mailbox parameters
$mailboxParams = $Context.TargetObject.GetMailParameters()

# Change email adresses
$mailboxParams.EmailAddressPolicyEnabled = $False
$emailAddresses = $mailboxParams.EmailAddresses
for ($i = 0; $i -lt $emailAddresses.Count; $i++)
{
    $emailAddress = $emailAddresses.GetAddress($i,[ref]"ADS_PROPERTY_NONE")
    $emailAddress.Address = "_" + $emailAddress.Address
}
$mailboxParams.EmailAddresses = $emailAddresses

But sometimes we have user has X400 an X500 addresses we would like to remove those addresses, how can I do it using Adaxes SDK?

Hello,

Like this:

$prefixes = @("x400", "x500") # TODO: modify me

# Get mailbox parameters
$mailboxParams = $Context.TargetObject.GetMailParameters()

# Remove Address with the specified prefixes
$mailboxParams.EmailAddressPolicyEnabled = $False
$emailAddresses = $mailboxParams.EmailAddresses
foreach ($prefix in $prefixes)
{
    foreach ($emailAddress in $emailAddresses.GetAddressesByPrefix($prefix))
    {
        $emailAddresses.Remove($emailAddress)
    }
}

# Change email addresses
for ($i = 0; $i -lt $emailAddresses.Count; $i++)
{
    $emailAddress = $emailAddresses.GetAddress($i,[ref]"ADS_PROPERTY_NONE")
    $emailAddress.Address = "_" + $emailAddress.Address
}
$mailboxParams.EmailAddresses = $emailAddresses

# Save changes
$Context.TargetObject.SetMailParameters($mailboxParams, "ADM_SET_EXCHANGE_PARAMS_FLAGS_NONE")

And what if I'd like to change only SMTP addresses, without any changes on X500 and X400?
I mean we add "_" to all SMTP but left X400 and X500 without ant chanes.

Sure:

# Get mailbox parameters
$mailboxParams = $Context.TargetObject.GetMailParameters()

# Change SMTP email addresses
$mailboxParams.EmailAddressPolicyEnabled = $False
$emailAddresses = $mailboxParams.EmailAddresses
foreach ($emailAddress in $emailAddresses.GetAddressesByPrefix("SMTP"))
{
    $emailAddress.Address = "_" + $emailAddress.Address
}
$mailboxParams.EmailAddresses = $emailAddresses

# Save changes
$Context.TargetObject.SetMailParameters($mailboxParams, "ADM_SET_EXCHANGE_PARAMS_FLAGS_NONE")
