Use the Remove-SendConnector cmdlet to delete a Send connector on a computer that has the Hub Transport server role or the Edge Transport server role installed.

Syntax

Remove-SendConnector -Identity <SendConnectorIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]

Detailed Description

The Remove-SendConnector cmdlet deletes the object and the configuration information for the Send connector.

Warning

Although a Send connector is configured on a local Hub Transport server or on an Edge Transport server, deleting a Send connector may affect mail flow throughout the organization.

To run the Remove-SendConnector cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:

Exchange Server Administrator role and local Administrators group for the target server

To run the Remove-SendConnector cmdlet on a computer that has the Edge Transport server role installed, you must log on by using an account that is a member of the local Administrators group on that computer.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, see Permission Considerations.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Type	Description
Identity	Required	Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.SendConnectorIdParameter	Use the Identity parameter to specify the GUID or connector name that represents a specific Send connector. You can also include the server name by using the format ServerName\ConnectorName.
Confirm	Optional	System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter	The Confirm parameter causes the command to pause processing and requires you to acknowledge what the command will do before processing continues. You don't have to specify a value with the Confirm parameter.
DomainController	Optional	Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Fqdn	To specify the fully qualified domain name of the domain controller that writes this configuration change to the Active Directory directory service, include the DomainController parameter on the command. The DomainController parameter is not supported on computers that have the Edge Transport server role installed. The Edge Transport server role writes and reads only to the local Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) instance.
WhatIf	Optional	System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter	The WhatIf parameter instructs the command to simulate the actions that it would take on the object. By using the WhatIf parameter, you can view what changes would occur without having to apply any of those changes. You don't have to specify a value with the WhatIf parameter.

Example

The following code sample shows three examples that use the Remove-SendConnector cmdlet.

When you run the first example, you will be prompted for the Identity parameter. When you are prompted for the Identity parameter, enter the Identity parameter as a string as follows, for example, as a GUID: de2a614d-dd4e8-4ef7-b113-b51bd14ac3e1 or as a connector name: "Contoso.com Send Connector".

In the second example, the command deletes the object and configuration information for the Send connector that is specified by the Identity parameter.

In the third example, the command runs without the Identity parameter label, leaving only the Identity parameter value.
