Sure, and I appreciate that context. Stability, reliablity, availability. However, this is for me a learning exercise, though not academic since my own mail is on the line. Perhaps I should establish that context as well in my question. However, I am simply unprepared for responses which are so totally obsessed with stability that they assume that onyone asking such a question must have his priorities screwed up.

I'm not being hostile - perhaps you are interpreting it that way, but that's not my fault. I'm trying to save you a lot of work. If you knew what the System Mailbox was used for, then you wouldn't be worried about trying to access it, ergo my suggestion to read up on what the System Mailbox is used for and not worry about trying to access it. Here, "because I wanted to" sure ain't gonna cover my butt if I were to screw up our Exchange server as a result of accessing that mailbox. I'd likely end up on my butt out on the street.

In other words...you should leave the System Mailbox alone, Patrick. I'd suggest that you do a bit more studying about what exactly the System Mailbox is used for before you try and access it and screw up your server...

So when I open the System Manager, under Servers/MyServer/Queues/First Storage Group/Mailbox Store/Mailboxes, I see a mailbox called SystemMailbox. It currently has several hundred messages in it. Just how do you view these messages?
