manage SharePoint list alerts for multiple users on multiple lists
In certain cases SharePoint alerts are more useful than workflows, f.e. having the possibility to let users manager their alerts is not possible with workflows.
To manager alerts for a couple of users on specific lists I’ve written a script that handles the whole cycle of alerts. It let me delete, update and create alerts based on predefined configuration.

To change an Active Directory users password expiration mode you can use this PowerShell snippet:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory

select -First 50 | %{
Write-Host $_.UserPrincipalName
Set-ADUser $_ -PasswordNeverExpires $true
}

Get Active Directory User Membership Groups Recursively
To get a users member shipments recursively I’ve written an extended function based on the already existing function Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership
it simply loops through the users member shipments and outputs the data in tree styled list.
