You have to launch the Exchange Management Shell (EMS) with elevated permissions. This is true even if you are logged in as an Administrator:
Right-click EMS, select Run as administrator.

- Hi Bob,
How about your question now?
You said you connected as Network Administrator. Which groups does the Netword Administator belongs to?
Please also do as Jon said: run as administrator to test.
By the way, you must be at least an Exchange View-Only Administrator role to run the cmdlet.

And how you conncet to Exchange server? By log on to the server locally or connect to server on client which is installed Exchange Administator tool?
Please also have a look at this post, maybe it will be helpful.

- Hi Bob,
How about your question? Any update?
Frank Wang - Cheers guys, Running powershell as Administrator works fine. I'd presumed Network Admin would have had adequate permissions but alas no :s
The SSL etc are all set up fine and clients can connect from the LAN and WAN :) BUT, OAB is not set-up at all and needs to be i guess (Autodiscover too), The OAB only provides AD user listings? in which case its hardly any use to us having very few mail users...
I am as you might have guessed an Exchange newbie :)
On a side note, i had thought the 'wipe' ability in relation to Mobile devices would only delete 'Exchange' information so happily tried it on my Windows Mobile... what a mistake! It reset the phone back to a default default default state! including wiping the entire Storage card which of course held the phone backups :) That'll teach me!
I connect via RD Frank. Thank you for the links, they and this entire forum are very useful.
