I am trying to uninstall exchange 2000 but I am getting the error that there are still users mailboxes on the mailbox store and to move them or disable them. Looking through exchange system manager the only mailboxes I have are:

SMTP
System Attendant
System Mailbox

Any help would be great

Sometimes Active Directory contains users with corrupted Exchange attributes. Try a query in Active Directory (enable Advanced Features for the action later on). Go to the Advanced tab and select field: Exchange Home Server ends with SERVERNAME. Select all users returned from the query and do a right-click > Exchange Tasks > Remove Exchange attributes.
Let Active Directory replicate to other DCs on site for about half an hour.
You should be able to uninstall Exchange 2000 after this.
Good luck!
