Hi All
I am using exchange 2016 hybrid env. we create shared mailboxes in onprem and migrate to cloud and sometimes we create remote shared mailboxes.
i have a few shared mailboxes and i want to rename them.
Current Display Name: Test ABCD
Current Alias: testabcd
Current Email Address: testabcd@Company portal .com
I want to rename to below
New Display Name: Test AAAA
New Alias: testaaaa
New Email Address: testaaaa@Company portal .com
Experts please help me with the powershell syntax to rename the shared mailbox and also in the cloud i can see alias testabcd@Company portal .onmicrosoft.com.
can this be deleted.

So you can use Set-RemoteMailbox command.

Set-Mailbox -Identity ******@contoso.com -EmailAddress ******@contoso.com -DisplayName "Test AAAA" -Alias "testaaaa"
