Cause
I have resolved the issue, to solve this, we have to go into Active Directory Users and Computers. Under View, select Advanced Features. Now, under the /Microsoft Exchange System Objects folder, manually delete the Correspondance 81807753 object.
To prevent this, you have to mail-disable the public folder before deleting it from the public folders
Tip:
If you want to quick find the old public folder use a custom AD search:
