1. Open PowerShell or EMS
2. If this is an O365 mailbox, you will need to connect to the O365 environment
3. Connect to Exchange On-line
   1. From the PowerShell console on an Exchange 2010 server:

$Cred = Get-Credential 

$s = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://ps.outlook.com/powershell -Credential $cred -Authentication Basic –AllowRedirection 

Import-PSSession $s
