On Ubuntu servers dpkg may think that Zimbra is still installed. Check by running dpkg --list (-l) or dpkg -q zimbra* and see if zimbra items are still listed. You can remove them by running:

dpkg --remove zimbra-apache zimbra-ldap zimbra-mta zimbra-spell zimbra-core zimbra-logger zimbra-snmp zimbra-store or

sudo rm -r /opt/zimbra
