Use the Shell to create an email address policy by using recipient filters

To create an email address policy by using recipient filters, use the following syntax.

New-EmailAddressPolicy -Name <String> -RecipientFilter <String>

This example creates an email address policy that applies to all executives and for which the local part of the email address consists of the first two letters of their first name and their entire last name.

New-EmailAddressPolicy -Name 'Execs' -EnabledEmailAddressTemplates 'SMTP:%2g%s@contoso.com' -RecipientFilter "((RecipientType -eq 'UserMailbox') -and (Title -like 'executive'))"

For detailed syntax and parameter information, see New-EmailAddressPolicy.
