ASKER CERTIFIED SOLUTION

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Get-Mailbox -Arbitration
It will list all the arbitration mailboxes in the organization. If this is your only Exchange 2010 mailbox server in the organization, then you can remove them with the following:
Get-Mailbox -Arbitration | Remove-Mailbox
If you have other Exchange 2010 mailbox servers, then you are going to need to filter it to only this server. Do that with the following:
Get-Mailbox -Server SERVERNAME -Arbitration | Remove-Mailbox
where SERVERNAME is the hostname of the mailbox server you are trying to uninstall.
