Disable a Mailbox

This topic explains how to use the Exchange Management Console (EMC) and the Exchange Management Shell to disable the mailbox of an existing Active Directory user object in Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. This task removes all the Exchange attributes from the user object in Active Directory. Based on the deleted items retention policy, the Exchange store will retain mailbox data for the user object.
