Migrated from Exchange 2003 to 2007 long time ago. After everything was moved to 2007 server. Ran exchange 2003 setup and removed exchange server using the installer so everything gets removed properly. Now 2007 box logs Warnings 5006 and 5020. Is there a way to remove exch2003 using power shell and not mess with ADSI?

Check for existence of legacy RG connector. Then look in any Exchange security group like Exchange servers and remove 2003 exchange server from that group. And run under tools : Exchange Best Practice analyzer.

The only server listed under Exchange Servers security group is the new 2007 box. 2003 exchange was uninstalled and then disjoined from the domain. If I drill down to ADSI Edit, and expand Configuration, expand CN=Configuration,CN=<domain>, expand CN=Services, expand CN=Microsoft Exchange, expand CN=<Exchange organization name>, expand CN=Address Lists Container, and then select CN=Recipient Update Services. In the result pane, I see Recipient Update Service (Enterprise Configuration) and Recipient Update Service (<domain>) both items have OLD Exchange name listed under msExchAddressListServiceLink atribute Get-RoutingGroupConnector returns NO results. Bes Practices Analizer sees 2 Administrative groups. The decommissioned 2003 and new that was created at the time of 2007 installation
