I’m very careful about such things:
foreach( $user in $users )
{
If( $user.WindowsEmailAddress –and ( -not (
[String]::IsNullOrEmpty( $user.WindowsEmailAddress.ToString() ) ) ) )
{
$UPN = $user.WindowsEmailAddress.ToString()
Write-Host "Setting " $UPN
$user | Set-User -UserPrincipalName $UPN
}
}

OK, Thank you.
Now I find that a couple of accounts do not have an email address. To bypass
them do I test for WindowsEmailAddress being not null right before foreach or
part of the foreach statement.
Like.... If (WindowsEmailAddress not null) { $UPN = }
I am used to IF then next else end.

I am using a powershell script to update the UPN in AD for our Office 365
migration. Below is the script.
#
$users = Get-User -Filter "distinguishedName -like 'CN=*,OU=Information
Technology,OU=BR-General,OU=Employees,OU=Accounts,DC=ghsbtr,DC=net'"
-ResultSize Unlimited
foreach ($user in $users)
{
$UPN = "$($user.WindowsEmailAddress)"
Write-Host "Setting " $UPN
$user | Set-User -UserPrincipalName $UPN
}
It errors out with this error:
Setting
Invoke-Command : Cannot bind parameter 'UserPrincipalName' to the target.
Exception setting "UserPrincipalName": "The p
roperty can't be empty."
