This cmdlet is available only in on-premises Exchange.
Use the Remove-ReceiveConnector cmdlet to remove Receive connectors from Mailbox servers and Edge Transport servers.
For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.
Remove-ReceiveConnector [-Identity] <ReceiveConnectorIdParameter>
[-Confirm]
[-DomainController <Fqdn>]
[-WhatIf]
[<CommonParameters>]
Removing a Receive connector from the server might affect mail flow throughout the organization.
You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.
Remove-ReceiveConnector -Identity "Contoso.com Receive Connector"
This example removes the Receive connector named Contoso.com Receive Connector.
The Identity parameter specifies the Receive connector that you want to remove. You can use any value that uniquely identifies the Receive connector. For example:
- Name
- Distinguished name (DN)
- GUID
- ServerName\Name
Type: ReceiveConnectorIdParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.
- Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax:
-Confirm:$false
. - Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.

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 (FQDN). For example, dc01.contoso.com.
The DomainController parameter isn't supported on Edge Transport servers. An Edge Transport server uses the local instance of Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) to read and write data.
