[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Get-MailboxMessageConfiguration cmdlet shows Outlook on the web settings for the specified mailbox. These settings are not used in Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, or other email clients. These settings are applied in Outlook on the web only. Settings that contain the word Mobile are applied in Microsoft Outlook on the web for devices only.
Note
The SignatureHtml and SignatureText parameters don't work if the Outlook roaming signatures feature is enabled in your cloud-based organization. Currently, the only way to make these parameters work again is to open a support ticket and ask to have Outlook roaming signatures disabled in your organization.

Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Parameters
-Credential
The Credential parameter specifies the username and password to use to access the mailbox.
A value for this parameter requires the Get-Credential cmdlet. To pause this command and receive a prompt for credentials, use the value (Get-Credential). Or, before you run this command, store the credentials in a variable (for example, $cred = Get-Credential) and then use the variable name ($cred) for this parameter. For more information, see Get-Credential.

-ReadFromDomainController
The ReadFromDomainController switch specifies that information should be read from a domain controller in the user's domain. You don't need to specify a value with this switch.
The command: Set-AdServerSettings -ViewEntireForest $true to include all objects in the forest requires the ReadFromDomainController switch. Otherwise, the command might use a global catalog that contains outdated information. Also, you might need to run multiple iterations of the command with the ReadFromDomainController switch to get the information.
By default, the recipient scope is set to the domain that hosts your Exchange servers.
