Description

When trying to remove a Public Folders Database (either from the console or with Remove-PublicFolderDatabase) from Exchange 2007 server on Exchange 2010 environment, you get the following error message:
"Object is read only because it was created by a future version of Exchange: 0.10 (14.0.100.0). Current supported version is 0.1 (8.0.535.0)."

Solution

Connect to the Exchange 2010 server and either remove the Public Folder from the console or use the Remove-PublicFolderDatabase command, i.e.:
Remove-PublicFolderDatabase -identity "Public Folder Database_name"
or:
Remove-PublicFolderDatabase -identity "server_name\storagegroup_name\pf_name"
