If you have Administrator privileges, you can enable Full Access Permissions on the mailbox to the Administrator or your personal account.

From there, the user's mailbox will be fully accessible in your account (or the Administrator's account). You can make changes to the folder structure there.

I don't know what you are doing with an Exchange server but you don't know how to reset a password in AD...

As for merging the mailbox, use the Export-Mailbox and Import-Mailbox cmdlets.

Export Mailbox cmdlet example

New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox AylaKol -FilePath \\MBX-01\PSTFileShare\Ayla_Recovered.pst

Import Mailbox cmdlet example

New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox Ayla -FilePath \\SERVER01\PSTFiles\Recovered.pst -TargetRootFolder "RecoveredFiles"

Exchange 2010: Remove Administrator Mailbox

That seems like a bad reason to remove the Administrator's mailbox. The yearly per-user pricing on ESET's Mail Security for Exchange is under $30 in blocks up to 5 users. It goes down as your numbers increase. How many users are you licensed for? Are you really that constrained?

Either way, to remove the administrator mailbox, something like this should work:

get-mailbox -id administrator | disable-mailbox
