Uninstalling Exch2003

This should be pretty simple, but I think that I have been
looking at it for too long. I need to reinstall Exchange
2003, as the setup was incorrect and on the wrong drive.
I want to reinstall Exchange on the correct drive.
However, when I try to remove exchange, I get the message
about a mailbox existing and needing to be moved, or the
client mail disabled.

Ok, seems straight forward, there is the administrator
account and a test user account. No other account were
set up with mailboxes.

I have deleted mailboxes (from exchange tasks in AD users
& Computers) and I have also tried disabling exchange
features. No luck either way.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in Adnvance

Phil,

You can make a call into Microsoft support for a free utility to remove any
hidden mailboxes. There will be no charge for the call.
