Whack 'em if you're sure you don't need 'em. 

Take a backup first, though. Just in case.

Subject: Removing last 5.5 Server - Public Folders

I'm finally getting rid of my last 5.5 server!  Going through KB822450
it says "If public folders are present on the computer that is running
Exchange Server 5.5, they must be migrated to an Exchange 2003 computer
that is in the administrative group.  The question I have is what is the
reason for them saying they "must" be migrated.  Is it must as in you
won't have access to them or must as in your exchange organization will
get messed up if you don't migrate them?

I have public folders (which I don't believe are needed) "Internet
Newsgroups" and "NAV for Microsoft Exchange-EXCHANGE".  I'm guessing the
NAV folder is left over from olden days when I was running Norton
Antivirus.  The Internet Newsgroups folder has never been used.  Unless
there is some reason these folder should be migrated I'd rather not
migrate them and I'm having trouble deleting them.  So, is it going to
be a problem if I don't migrate them?

Thanks for your help.

Curt Finley
