On prem Exchange user remote mailbox

Question

Hello,

We are using adaxes with a M365 hybrid environment and right now we have to manually create a remote mailbox on prem after user creation.

We have the M365 Tenant setup so that a user is automatically added in M365 and licensed. They also already have their M365 mailbox created and the address user@mydomain.onmicrosoft.com

Is there a way to create a custome command to auto-create the on prem remote mailbox.

This is the current command we are using in exchange shell to accomplish this manually

Enable-MailUser -Identity "user@mydomain.com" –ExternalEmailAddress "user@mydomain.onmicrosoft.com"

Enable-RemoteMailbox "user"

Hello,

There is no need to use scripts or additional Custom Commands for this purpose. Adaxes can automatically enable remote mailboxes for users when a Microsoft 365 license with access to Exchange Online is assigned. For details, have a look at the following help article: https://www.adaxes.com/help/?HowDoI.PerformExchangeTasks.ConfigureEnablingDisablingOfRemoteMailboxes.html. It is recommended to specify a remote routing address template in Adaxes for each of your Microsoft 365 tenants registered in Adaxes. For details, see section Changing Remote Routing Address Template of the article.
