Use the Shell to set the calendar options for IMAP4
This example enables IMAP4 users to use the iCalendar standard, a standard for exchanging calendar information.
Set-ImapSettings -Server CAS01 -CalendarItemRetrievalOption iCalendar
This example enables IMAP4 users to access calendar information from an internal server.
Set-ImapSettings -Server CAS01 -CalendarItemRetrievalOption IntranetUrl
This example enables IMAP4 users to access calendar information from the Internet on an external server.
Set-ImapSettings -CalendarItemRetrievalOption InternetUrl
This example enables IMAP4 users to access calendar information by using a direct Outlook Web App URL. If you're using Custom, you must specify an Outlook Web App URL using the OWAServerUrl parameter.

After you've specified the calendar options for IMAP4, you must restart the IMAP4 services. For information about how to restart the IMAP4 services, see Start and stop the IMAP4 services.
