-Confirm	SwitchParameter		The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on whether the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.
-DomainController	Fqdn		The DomainController parameter specifies the domain controller that's used by this cmdlet to read data from or write data to Active Directory. You identify the domain controller by its fully qualified domain name...
-ManagedFolderLinks	ELCFolderIdParameter[]		The ManagedFolderLinks parameter specifies managed folders to which the managed folder mailbox policy is to be linked. The managed folders that you link to a policy appear in all mailboxes to which the policy is applied.
-Name	String		The Name parameter specifies a unique name for the policy.
-WhatIf	SwitchParameter		The WhatIf switch shows what the command does without making any changes. You don't need to specify a value with this switch.
