Providing you have no Events scripts running on this server (or perhaps you have not even installed the Event service?), you will not suffer through letting this object hang around.

I carefully followed Q152959 (remove 1st Ex srv in site) and Q189286 (deleting srv from sit). Yesterday I turned off all of the exch services in the 1st server and just left it and monitored the new exch server. No one complained of any problems and mail flowed in an out without incident. This morning I executed the final piece and deleted the 1st server object from the Administrator program. For what ever reason it created some objects from the 1st server that I had specifically did not want to replicate in the new server. Those objects were the Eventsconfig_<1stServer> and 3 public folders used by Norton Antivirus. In the past I have had ghosted eventsconfig folders when I added additional servers to the site to test disaster recovery but have been able to remove them with the events.exe /c command. This did not worked this time. Any ideas on fixing? Other than it being listed is there any harm in it sitting there? When I click on the NAV folder with an Outlook client I get "Unable to display the folder. The contents of the public folder are currently unavailable. Either the MS Exch computer servicing this folder is down or the public folder has not been replicated to this site." I was going to highlight this PF object and try to delete Raw Object but thought I would ask for some additional opinions first.
