To resolve this we had to run through the following steps

• Find the following accounts and delete them
• “SystemMailbox{e0dc1c29-89c3-4034-b678-e6c29d823ed9}”
• “FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042”
• “SystemMailbox{1f05a927-****-****-****-*******}” (Make a note of the Guid of previous system mailbox as it varies on every enviroment)
• Open Command prompt navigate to your Exchange Setup files and run setup.com /preparead
• Open the Exchange Management Shell and run the below
• Enable-Mailbox –Arbitration –Identity “FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042”
• Enable-Mailbox –Arbitration –Identity “SystemMailbox{e0dc1c29-89c3-4034-b678-e6c29d823ed9}”

• Set-Mailbox –Arbitration –Identity “FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042” –ProhibitSendQuota 1MB

Your arbitration mailboxes should now be fine, run Get-Mailbox –arbitration to confirm and all should appear with no errors
