Hi,
Are there any mailboxes assigned to that mailbox database in 07? If not, then they wouldn't delete from the 2k10 server because the mailboxes can only be on one Exchange server. Once you migrate the mailboxes to 2k10 then they cannot be moved back to a 2k7 server.
You can't remove the folder database until you remove the mailbox database it is associated with in 2k7. Are you running the public folder commands from the 2k10 box?
Andrew.

Oh yeah. Thanks. I know that removing the system from the network without
uninstalling Exchange 07 using add remove programs would give me a lot of
work to do.
I'm very nervous about deleting the mailboxes in case something replicates
and their deleted from the new server as well. Maybe I'm just paranoid
though.
When I try to delete the public folders from the GUI it gives me the same
kind of error as I get in the console. I.e, they can not be removed
before removing replication or some kind of thing like that. Will this
change if the mailbox is deleted first?
Thanks again.
