Removing Public Folder Database from Exchange 2010
Hello experts,
We have only one Exchange 2003 server in our organization.
I have tried to setup a new Exchange 2010 server in coexistence with 2003, but failed for some reason. I didn't move any mailbox from 2003 to 2010.
Finally, I will remove Exchange 2010 and start again from begining using some good guides which I have got.
I have removed the mailbox database.
Now I am trying to remove the Public Folder Database, but getting this error:
--------------------------
Microsoft Exchange Error
--------------------------
The public folder database 'Public Folder Database' cannot be deleted.
Public Folder Database
Failed
Error:
The public folder database "Public Folder Database" contains folder replicas. Before deleting the public folder database, remove the folders or move the replicas to another public folder database. For detailed instructions about how to remove a public folder database, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=81409&clcid=0x409.
Any help removing it?

Shall I delete it using Exchange 2003 System Manager? Is it safe to do so?
