Exch07 Quota Report
Power Shell 1 script used to grab mailbox stats for a Exchange 2007 server. It saves the information into a .csv file by changing the $OUTFILE variable. The script is pretty basic but it's a simple way of having a history of how people use their inbox space. There is no method for managing the saved files. I just make it a point to delete them when I run my months end maintenance.

Out-DataTable

Modified WOL impl.
This function can send WOL packages. Note that this a modified version of code already floating online. You need to specify the Mac address as a string. Optionally use -Ports (0,1000) to specify the udp ports. (use -verbose to show which pacakges are being send).

Start-Presentation

"See the screenshots for an example":http://HuddledMasses.org/images/PowerBoots/PowerBoots%2dPresentation.png

PresentationFrame.xaml
A required file for my "PowerShell Presentation module":http://poshcode.org/2105
