Thanks Hank, you pushed me into the right direction here.

I know this is probably too late. But for other like me searching for a solution to this issue.
The error is thrown because the Exchange alias/mailNickname is already set for this non-mail enabled account.
You can change the alias/mainNickname attribute after adding the mailbox.
