Hi Geeks!
I have successfully migrated the SBS 2003 to Server 2008 and moved mailboxes and public folders to Server 2008.
Then finally decided to uninstall Exchange 2003 from SBS server and removal did NOT finish error free, there were an error (forgot the error) uninstall finished but I still can see in services:
Microsoft Exchange Event
Microsoft IMAP4
Microsoft Exchange inormation store
Microsoft Exchange management Stacks
Microsoft POP3
Microsoft Exhchange routing engine
Microsoft Exchange site replication service
Microsoft Exchange system attendant
If I go to Start–> All prog.—>Microsoft Exchange 2003 I find there is NOTHING but a Outlook Web administation icon.
If I try to run exchange setup to remove it I only find UPDATE option there not REMOVE.
Please help how can I get it uninstalled? Please help!I have not demoted SBS server yet, please let me know if it is okay to transfer the FSMO roles from SBS to new server?

The FSMO roles have nothing to do with Exchange. I recommend that you post your question in the SBS forum.
