I’ve been fighting for a while to find a GOOD script that can do everything from one machine and still work on Exchange 2010 while supporting Exchange 2013/2016. I spent the day working on this sucker so i can send it off to a client to perform an assessment without physically touching the environment and here it is. Enjoy!

Update: I’ve taken my whole script and put it out on my GitHub – check it out!
