Shared mailboxes provide centralized delegated access to common mailboxes and enhance
organization-wide coordination without requiring additional licenses. However, it's crucial to get shared mailbox size reports in Microsoft 365 to tackle potential storage issues.

As such I've now developed and published a module in the PowerShell Gallery and on GitHub called CurrencyConverter.
