ADSIedit "Microsoft Exchange System Objects" container has old Public Folder objects - Can I delete?

Hello,

Is it safe to remove objects, that no longer exist, from the ADSIedit container:  CN=Microsoft Exchange System Objects,DC=domain_name,DC=com

In this container, we have a bunch of objects that refer to old Public Folders that were created on an old Exch 2003 server or possibly Exch 5.5 server that is no longer around. I do see our new Public Folder that are mail-enabled in this list as well.  Can the old ones simply be deleted since the Public Folders they refer to no longer exist?

Thanks.

This is what I was thinking.  I am going to delete one of the objects and wait a day to see if anything happens.

The old Exchange Server was removed properly, but we did run into a few problems.  I have previously gone through all of the steps in the link you provided.
