Typically you can assign either Full and Sendas permissions to mailboxes using Powershell.

In our organization we have a need to assign other fine grained permissions like editor, reader , author to the shared mailboxes. We are using a third party tool to achieve this. I am pretty happy with the tool except for that fact that it is a GUI only tool.

I am trying to automate the entire process of shared mailbox creation by using a combination of embedded powershell in C# program. All other steps are easy to automate but because this tool is GUI only, I am really struck.

Is there an API method available to to achieve this? I guess EWS API can provide some answer but I really do not know where to start.

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language.
