Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010 One remaining Public Folder

[GeoDM]

I can not get this 1 public folder to go away. I want to remove the Exchange 2007 server and cant until this folder stops replicating. I have used the script to remove all the replications but for weeks now when I run Get-PublicFolderStatistics I get EX:/o=<myDomain>/ou=First Administrative Group and an item count of 65. I am at an absolute loss. What do I need to do?

Here is a trick which helps me when repliating public folders - waiting for the last folder(s) can be frustrating.

Create a dummy public folder with a dummy message on Exchange 2010. Usually, I do this in Outlook on a client, whose mailbox is on the E-10 server. Then create a replica on the Exchange 2007 server (use your preferred approach).

Once you are done with the problematic folder(s), you can simply delete the dummy folder from both servers

I dont even think this folder needs to be replicated. All the non system folders are working fine on the new 2010 box. It looks like this is a system folder. I find it in two places

1) System Public Folders\OFFLINE ADDRESS BOOK\EX:/o=<mydomain>/ou=Fist Administrative Group
2) System Public Folders\SCHEDULE+ FREE BUSY\EX:/o=<mydomain>/ou=Fist Administrative Group

Arent these old Exchange 2003 folders? Can I just delete them without causing issues in Exchange 2010? In a mixed 2007 and 2010 environment I can see all the public folders between the two servers so you never know if you are deleting something on the 2007 box without affecting the 2010 box.
