Certainly, the code above is what I've used, and it seems to work alright. Sorry, I don’t know – I’ve never used Powershell.

Setting the EmailAlias property works fine. Setting the EnableAssignToEmail executes but does not actually persist. The $Library.Update() line reports: Exception calling "Update" with "0" argument(s): "Error in the application." $Library.Update( <<<< ) If I eMail enable the document library manually through the interface it works fine and the email contact is created, etc. However, when I then look at the properties for the document library, the EnableAssignToEmail property is set to false eventhough it is actually enabled. I read somewhere that sharepoint keeps a list of email enabled document libraries. Maybe that is where it needs to be set? How might that be done? Thanks for you help.

Setting the RootFolder properties works fine.
Setting the EmailAlias property works fine.

Setting the EnableAssignToEmail executes but does not actually persist.
The $Library.Update() line reports:

Exception calling “Update” with “0″ argument(s): “Error in the application.”
$Library.Update( <<<< )

If I eMail enable the document library manually through the interface it works fine and the email contact is created, etc. However, when I then look at the properties for the document library, the EnableAssignToEmail property is set to false eventhough it is actually enabled.

How might that be done?

Thanks for you help.
