Windows SharePoint Services Folders are read only in Outlook

Issue:
User came with the issue that he was recieving the Erro message "Windows SharePoint Services Folders are read only in Outlook" whenenver he tried to Edit the SharePoint Calendar from MS Outlook

The Reason
User had Outlook 2003 installed on his system and after researching, I found out that the Functionality the client is looking for is available only with Outlook 2007. With Outlook 2003 users are having read only permissions, it is a limitation of the previous product.

Resolution:
Asked the Client to upgrade to the Outlook 2007. Refer  to the Forum Article

Kindly comment if the post was helpful.

Thanks
