Question : Cant move or purge mailbox

Hi, I'm trying to de-promote an exchange server from the organasition. unfortunately the last remaining mailbox is refusing to move of delete.

When I try to move i get the following error:
- <item adsPath="test1" class="user">
  <progress code="4" milliseconds="23407">Moving messages.</progress>
- <summary isWarning="false" errorCode="0xc1054005">
  The MAPI call failed. MAPI or an unspecified service provider. ID no: 80004005-0000-00000000

When i go to exchange tasks and select delete, the mailbox correctly enters a state for purging. When i select purge, nothing happens.

Is there some way where i can manually delete the mailbox from the database?

Ultimately my goal is to just get the exchange server demoted, perhaps there is a way to get there mailstore deleted regardless of the mailbox which resides in it?

Any help is much appreciated..

Try the Load Optimized Defaults first., If that doesn't work try the other one. Good luck.
