Nevermind, I found an account that had an "orphaned" mailbox on that
server.

Pardon the interruption,

Subject: Removing an Exchange 2000 server

I am in the process of removing an Exchange 2000 server from my site.
This server was used to during a "swing method" upgrade to temporarily
hold users while we upgraded the production servers to 2000.  It hasn't
had a user's mailbox on it for several weeks and currently only has 3
mailboxes that all appear to be system mailboxes: SMTP, System
Attendant, and System Mailbox.  No public folders are homed on this
server.

I am following Q307917 to remove this server and have performed steps 1
through 7 over the past few days to ensure replication has had time to
complete each step.  When I go to perform the uninstall I get a message
to the effect that there are still mailboxes stored on the server and I
am unable to perform the uninstall.

Is there a way around this or have I missed something?

Should I simply remove the server from the site via System Manager and
manually uninstall Exchange?  

Which is the better way?

Thanks for any input.
