In upgrading drupal 8.2.2 to drupal 8.2.3, I inadvertently deleted installed modules on a test site. Now I am reinstalling previously installed modules.

Upon reinstall of Mollom, I receive the following error:

Unable to install Mollom, mollom.settings already exists in active configuration

What do I have to do to delete the previous Mollom details so that I can reinstall the module?

And yes, I know I should have backed up the system but did not. There's nothing much worth saving on the site yet, so I skipped the backup. Good to be reminded of that on a site that hardly matters at all yet...

I'm not able to reproduce this. Uninstalling and re-installing seem to work fine in D8.2 and D8.3. Are you able to give me clearer steps to reproduce?

While it's probably too late for the original poster (my apologies)... in case it helps others:
There is a "mollom" table as well as an entry for Mollom in the "config" table. I suspect the complaint from Drupal is from the latter.
