Mailbox Automapping forward and reverse map using Autodiscover and PowerShell

Auto-mapping was a feature that was introduced in Exchange 2010, where when you added Mailbox access permission via Add-MailboxPermission, Outlook would automatically add that Mailbox as an additional Mailbox. Outlook uses Autodiscover to get the information on these mailboxes that are auto mapped via the AlternateMailboxes user setting eg in XML it comes back like the following One thing you can't see easily via the Exchange Managed Shell cmdlet is which ACE's (Access Control Entries) have Automapping enabled on a particular Mailboxes DACL and which don't. You also can't easily see from one mailbox which mailboxes will be auto mapped to it (basically a reverse mapping).So the purpose of this script is to provide both a forward and reverse mapping of Automapping setting for a collection of Mailboxes that are passed into to.

New functions I've added recently Get-UserPhotoMetaData...
