- Hi,
Not sure if this is the resolution , how ever this will help you out http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998037.aspx
Raj - Ah, I think the issue there is that ExternalDsnMaxMessageAttachSize is referring to the DSNs Exchange generates in response to external senders, not Exchange's ability to strip attachments in DSNs that are created by external servers.

- Thank you for your responsei can see the external DSNs error are generate by my exchange 2007 DSNs format
im trying to strip the attachment bouncing back to my server, from external mail serversis there any way Exchange 2007 to remove the attachments in DSNs bounced back to my server that are created by external serversThanks Can you try this.
Use the Set-TransportServer cmdlet with the -ExternalDsnMaxMessageAttachSize and -InternalDsnMaxMessageAttachSize parameters. A value of 0 effectively disables all attachments from NDRs.
Raj- i just did it[PS] C:\>Get-TransportServer -Identity SERVERNAME | fl *attach*
ExternalDsnMaxMessageAttachSize : 0B
InternalDsnMaxMessageAttachSize : 0Band im still getting the attachments in DSNs bounced back full message from user@externaldomain.com servers
- Not sure if this registry key chnage stilll holds good http://searchexchange.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid43_gci1130800,00.html
Also this can do the filtering of the attachments based on the size you define http://msmvps.com/blogs/erikr/archive/2005/01/02/29362.aspx

Make sure to back up the registry.
Raj - Hi,
As Andy explained, the configuration applied to the DSN message which generated by the Exchange Server. For DSN message generated by external email server, I am afriad that Exchange does not have an option to remove the attechments.
Thanks,
Mike - Is this happening for all messages or is it happening for , only if the sender is using older version of outlook?
KB 894795 says that if Outlook 2003 is below SP2 i doesn't read: PR_PROHIBIT_SEND_QUOTA and the PR_MAX_SUBMIT_MESSAGE_SIZE MAPI properties and therefore oversized message are submitted to store.
They are dropped at Categorizer level, where NDR is generated.
However NDR will include original message attached.
Microsoft claims that there is no hotfix for Exchange 2007 to avoid that. Client version needs to be updated to prevent this issue from reoccuring. - Thank you all for the suggestioni guess i just missed this:we are running Exchange 2007 sp2 installed on windows 2008 standard sp2 server 64 biti couldn't fine the registry key for changing it on my server, the KB 894795 referd to Exchange 2003, which is not referring to our server
