OK, you mention that this is a new Exchange 2000 install. SRS's are used to replicate information between E2K AG's and E55 sites, so something does not jive here. Is this an E2K server installed into an E55 site? To be picky, this is not a "new" Exchange 2000 install, this is an E2K upgrade or typical migration.
>From Microsoft docs: "You can delete an instance of Site Replication Service even if it is in use, but this is not recommended. If you remove the service, all copies of Exchange 5.5 directories are removed from computers running Exchange 2000 Server and replication data is lost. To restore copies of the Exchange 5.5 directory, create a new instance of Site Replication Service to replace the one you deleted." > I'm interested in deleting the default mailbox store that's created as part > of the first storage group of a new Exchange 2000 install.
