OWA – Setting up default message type and size
13Jan12
Every day a new challenge.
A customer requested to set the default message type in OWA to Arial.
Like almost ever you can do this easy with PowerShell:
Get-Mailbox -RecipientType ‘UserMailbox’ | Get-MailboxMessageConfiguration | Set-MailboxMessageConfiguration -DefaultFontName Arial
You can also do this for various parameters. Take a look at TechNet for a full list of parameters.
Cheers,
Chris

I found this very useful. Worked a treat for us. I added the following to the command as we had more than a 1000 recipients. -ResultSize Unlimited”
Hope this helps others as it has helped me.
Hi Chris,

Hi Matt,
AFAIK there is know way to set this as default rather than running a script on new mailboxes.
