PSObject does not contain op_addition

Question

Don't know why I am getting this error as it should not even be getting into the Catch statement as all the accounts I looked up in AD where successful, so I dont know why it would through the error on the catch. There are accounts, and they work, but catch still throws the error on the addition of any bad accounts.

Method invocation failed because [System.Management.Automation.PSObject] does not contain a method named 'op_Addition'. At D:\Apps\OnboardMailboxesV4.0.ps1:111 char:21

Without the entire script it's hard to say where the error originates, but it would be my guess that somewhere else in your script you set the value of the variable $BadOnboarded to be something other than an array.

The error says that it has a type of "System.Management.Automation.PSObject".
