I was incorrect above. The public folders do NOT have to be in the public folder mailbox that is the primary hierarchy for the script to remove permissions.

Awesome! I was wondering why that would be the case. So far I've only run into that behavior when removing duplicate ACEs.

Bill Can this script (or something like it) be used to remove unresolved SID's from mailboxes? I have a lot of "resource" mailboxes with unresolved SID's because of employee turnover and I'm looking for an easy way to remove them.

Yes, you could modify this script or write a new one to accomplish that. In fact, I have a generic "do all mailbox folders" script that I use as the basis for other scripts. You can find that one here: https://gist.github.com/bill-long/8677221. I should probably add some more documenting comments and blog about it.

I'm also looking at adding that functionality to my new (beta) MAPIFolders tool (http://mapifolders.codeplex.com), but it's not in there yet.

Thanks Bill. Unfortunately, I'm too inexperienced to write this stuff, but am looking forward to your new MapiFolders. I hope you can add the remove unresolved SID's functionality to it for both public folders and mailboxes.
