Groupwise info missing on admin account

Question

I caused this problem, and I'm trying to figure out if I have fixed
it. When I try to open the properties of the admin user in ConsoleONE,
I get a message that it can't open the Groupwise properties for the
object. There is no Groupwise tab.
Here's how it happened:
This system started as a 5.1 SBS running on an older server. We got a
new server and installed 6.5 on it. Complete, new, clean install.
Then I merged the old tree into the new tree. When I got done, I had
my new tree, UV_Tree, and two containers inside (more actually): HQ
(where all the new stuff is) and UltraViolet, which was the name of
the old tree. As a result, I had two admin accounts. I didn't
realize it, but the Groupwise account was tied to the admin in the
Ultraviolet container.
The old server died, and so I decided to remove it from the tree, and
to remove the old UltraViolet container completely. To delete it, I
had to delete all the objects in the container. So, I blew them all
away, including that admin account. A few hours later, I found out
that I had blown away the Groupwise account. I have tried to recover
the deleted account, but when I do, it fails, saying there all ready
is an Admin.HQ account.
So, I've renamed the old admin account, and created a new one. The new
one has a working GroupWise account. I could blow away the old admin
account, or strip it of rights and use it as a honeypot login...
Does anyone see any problems going forward?
