EWS Powershell default Mailbox Folder ACE audit script

The default Access Control Entry ACE in an Exchange Mailbox Folder DACL controls the rights that all authenticated users have to a particularity mailbox folder. Generally from a security perspective its something you don't want users to use as they may not understand when then set this ACE they are giving all people access to certain information. Eg Giving the default user reviewer rights to your Inbox means everyone in the Exchange org can now read mailbox in you Inbox which may not provide much privacy to your email. The following script will enumerate the permissions on every folder in a Mailbox and then produce a report of the folders where the default ACE isn't set to none. For most users the only folder that should show up in the report in the calendar folder. This script uses EWS but you could also use the Exchange Management Shell Get-MailboxFolderPermission cmdlet.

To run this script you need to feed is with a CSV file that contains the SMTPAddress of the Mailboxes you want it to run against. I've put a download of this script here the script itself looks like
