Add multiple proxy addresses with Microsoft PowerShell in Active Directory Groups

This article is second part of POWERSHELL ACTIVE DIRECTORY: ADD OR UPDATE PROXYADDRESSES IN USER PROPERTIES ATTRIBUTE EDITOR, In this part, I will be changing proxy addresses on active directory groups using PowerShell script. This is helpful while migration of bulk users and groups to Microsoft Office 365.Active Directory domain controller Powershell, get-Adgroup, proxyaddress, get-aduser, set-adgroup, set-aduser email, mail, groupcatogary change information

To use it copy below script in Add-ADGroupProxyAddress.ps1 file and the group information in Groups.txt, it is actually a csv file and can be opened with excel file and the sample tables contents in the files are as below. 
   -----------------------------------------------------------
   | Group      | emailid                                      |
   | ----------------------------------------------------------|
   | Group1    | Group1@vcloud-lab.com       |    
   | Group2    | Group2@vcloud-lab.com       |
   -----------------------------------------------------------

Headers of the table should be Group and emailid, Varify it with Import-Csv cmdlet. run command .\Add-AddGroupProxyAddress.ps1 -Path C:\temp\Groups.csv. Once information is set correctly it shows info of Group on console.

This code is available on Github.
