Password protected zip file blocked by Edge server
-
2012年1月12日 4:00
Hi,
I had a problem with inbound email with password protected zip file being blocked by the edge server.
I need to at least allow such email to be send by a specific domain because all their outbound mail with attachment will be automatically zipped with a password. Appreciate any help and possible workaround. Thanks!
Did a few testings and below are my observation.
#1. password protected file into zip format using winrar - blocked by edge server
#2. password protected file into rar format using winrar - allowed by edge server
#3. password protected file into zip format using winzip - allowed by edge server
NDR message
Diagnostic information for administrators:
mailserver.domain.com #<mailserver.domain.com #5.7.1 smtp; 550 5.7.1 Message rejected due to unacceptable attachments> #SMTP#

On your forefront under advanced options have you deselected the quarantine corrupted compressed files and delete corrupted compressed files

Hi Herbert,
The email with the zip attachment (zipped by winrar) was rejected, not quarantine or deleted.
But I have tried deselected both the option under forefront.
Cheers,

have you followed the instruction in the KB
- Stop the Transport service.
- Locate the EdgeTransport.exe.config file. This file is located in the following path:
<var>drive</var>:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Bin\
- Add the following entry between the <appSettings> element and the </appSettings> element of the EdgeTransport.exe.config file:
<add key="AllowInvalidAttachment" value="true" />
- Restart the Transport service.
- Verify that the problem is resolved. To do this, send an e-mail message that has a .zip file that is split into multiple files. Make sure that this e-mail message is processed for the upgraded server.

Hi,
Just to clarify, if I am not wrong the known issue on the KB is on the sender end. For my case, I am the receiver end and the file is rejected at the receiver end.
The full NDR error received by the sender is as follow:
"Your message wasn't delivered due to a permission or security issue. It may have been rejected by a moderator, the address may only accept e-mail from certain senders, or another restriction may be preventing delivery.
The following organization rejected your message: mailserver.domain.com.

Hello,
What is the result of Get-AttachmentFilterEntry?
Get-AttachmentFilterEntry
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124422(EXCHG.80).aspx
If you disable transport agent to allow all zipped file, will this issue occur?
Thanks,
Evan

Hi Evan,
We want to explore other options before disabling the "AttachmentFilterAgent".

You can use Filter Lists in Forefront protection 2010 for exchange to bypass inspecting files for a specific sender:
Go to Policy Management -> Filter Lists :
- Create Filter List for Allowed Sender
- Name the List
- Add the sender
- make sure "File" is checked
