Hi

I am unable to delete the mailbox store , it gives the error message

One or more users currently use this mailbox store. These users must be moved to a different mailbox store or be mail disabled before deleting this store.

ID no: c1034a7f
Exchange System Manager

There are no mailboxes connected to the mailbox store , there are only system mailboxes which are part of the mailbox store

Regards
Sonali

Check for any entries which exists on the HomeMDBBL on the specific DB. You shouldn't be seeing anything user mailboxes usually as you mentioned that only system mailbox exists. If anything exists, check for the corresponding object in Active Directory and
remove the exchange attributes once again. Or remove it through ADSIDEIT .

dsquery * "CN=CONFIGURATION,DC=Domainname,DC=COM" -filter cn=Exchangedatabasename -attr homemdbbl
If its the first database which got created on that server, then you need to move the system attendant mailbox to a different db to delete that mailbox. Check the below blog to understand how to move the system attendant mailbox.

Use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in. Find "Exchange
Reciients", select the "Storage" tab, select the "Mailboxes in this
mailbox store" and use the "Browse" button to find the database.

You'll easily find users that have never connectoed to their mailboxes
that way. You can remove the mailbox from the user, or move the
mailbox to another database.
