can i delete administrator account

i have done a migration from NT 4.0 + exchange 5.5 to
another dc 2000 with ex 2003. i have done the wholl job.
but when i moved all my mailboxes i have forgot to move my
administrator mailbox. so now i go under mailboxes in
exchange manager mailboxes and i don't see my exchange
mailbox for administrator account.
i want to recreate by choosing in AD for user and then
choose right click and exchange tasks . i have only the
following: remove the exchange attributes.
i need to associate a mailbox to that account.
now i have create a new account called admin (copied from
administrator)with the same priviledge rights.
i would like to log in admin and delete the administrator
with exchange account if its asks me too.
and then copy back from admin to a new administrator
account and mailbox associate.
can it be done??
with no errors on active directory??

Remove the Exchange Attributes from the Administrator account, replicate the
domain controllers, and then create a new mailbox.
