Get mailbox folder permissions for "remote" mailboxes

I'm using PowerShell commandlets to extract MailboxFolderPermissions. I'm using Get-MailboxfolderStatistics to get list of folders for particular mailbox and then Get-MailboxfolderPermission to get permissions for all available folders.

All is working fine for mailboxes hosted locally on Exchange server I'm connected to. But in the same domain there is another Exchange server and mailboxes hosted on it are also listed when invoking Get-Mailbox on the first one.

When I try to run Get-MailboxfolderStatistics or Get-MailboxfolderPermission for such "remote" mailbox I'm getting en error:

For Get-MailboxFolderStatistics cmdlet:

Unable to retrieve mailbox folder statistics for mailbox [email protected]. Failure: Error code -2146233088 occurred with message Cannot open mailbox /o=xxxxxxxx/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=EXCH2013/cn=Microsoft System Attendant.. + CategoryInfo: ReadError: (:) [Get-MailboxFolderStatistics],MailboxFolderStatisticsException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : BE037E6,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.Tasks.GetMailboxFolderStatistics + PSComputerName: xxxxxxxxxxx

For Get-MailboxFolderPermission cmdlet:

Cannot open mailbox /o=xxxxxxxx/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=EXCH2013/cn=Microsoft System Attendant. + CategoryInfo: NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [Get-MailboxFolderPermission], ConnectionFailedTransientException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : A44BD817,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.StoreTasks.GetMailboxFolderPermission + PSComputerName: xxxxxxxxxxx

Does anyone know what could the cause of above errors?

Is it possible to list permissions for remote mailbox folders?

Any help is really appreciated.
