Detailed Description
The Enable-UMMailbox cmdlet enables Unified Messaging (UM) for an existing mail-enabled Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 user. When the mail-enabled user is enabled for Unified Messaging, the settings from a UM mailbox policy are applied to the user. After the user is enabled for Unified Messaging, they can use the UM features that are included with Exchange 2007.
To run the Enable-UMMailbox cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the Exchange Recipient Administrator role.
For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange 2007, see Permission Considerations.

The first example enables Unified Messaging on the mailbox for yanli@contoso.com, sets the extension and PIN for the user, and then assigns a UM mailbox policy named MyUMMailboxPolicy to the user’s mailbox.
The second example enables Unified Messaging on a SIP-enabled mailbox for yanli@contoso.com, associates a UM mailbox policy named MYUMMailboxPolicy, and sets the extension number, SIP Resource identifier, and PIN for the user.
Enable-UMMailbox -Identity yanli@contoso.com -UMMailboxPolicy MyUMMailboxPolicy -Extensions 51234 -PIN 5643892 -NotifyEmail administrator@contoso.com -PINExpired $true
Enable-UMMailbox -Identity yanli@contoso.com -UMMailboxPolicy MyUMMailboxPolicy -Extensions 51234 -PIN 5643892 -NotifyEmail administrator@contoso.com -SIPResourceIdentifier "yanli@contoso.com" -PINExpired $true
