Programatically modifing exchange permissions - Microsoft Exchange

Have to look at KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310866 which covers using
the IExchangeMailbox Interface to do this programatically (you need CDOEXM).
If your just doing this as a one off you might want to look at using
ADModify to do this.

Cheers
