I'm trying to get the primarysmtpaddress, into a variable

[PS]> (Get-Mailbox user1) | fl *primary*
PrimarySmtpAddress : user1@xxxxxx



I would think that would work but it doesn't
[PS] >$pemail=(Get-Mailbox user1).primarysmtpaddress

[PS] >$pemail
Length Local
Domain
IsValidAddress
------ -----
------
--------------
25 user1
domain.com True

[PS]> (Get-Mailbox user1) | fl *primary*
PrimarySmtpAddress : user1@xxxxxx


I would like to have user1@xxxxxx in $pemail

Thanks

How about
(get-mailbox user1).PrimarySmtpAddress.ToString()

?
