running powershell command from c# webservice

I am running a powershell command from c#, which I call through a webservice

This is the command Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration -identity

Here is my code.

string command = "Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration -identity " + user;

The user I pass through the webservice.

However when I run it I get this error.

System.Management.Automation.RemoteException: The term 'Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration -identity babbey' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

I'm not sure where the &#39 is coming from before and after my command. However, if I take out the +user part it works fine. So my problem is the variable that is in the command variable.

If you use PowerShell.AddCommand, you only specify the command name e.g. Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration. Then you call AddParameter on the command to add the parameter e.g.:

var ps = PowerShell.Create();
ps.AddCommand("Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration");
ps.AddParameter("Identity", user);
