After Googling for a while, I found an article in which somebody had the exact same problem I had. It seemed to be an Exchange 2003 SP2 thing, because on my previous front-end server, I was able to delete the public folder store with no problem. Here's the article which describes the very same problem I am having, and the suggested solution, which did not work for me: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.exchange.setup/browse_th read/thread/a7f8d8c335ec5ffe/1f0ecdb552442ba4%231f0ecdb552442ba4?sa=X&oi =groupsr&start=0&num=3 And, I still cannot delete the FE public folder store, no matter what server I connect to, no matter if the store is mounted or not, no matter whether I've deleted the underlying databases or not.
