Exchange message not delivered
Posted on 2010-11-08
Trying to send an email to a client, with a PDF attachment. I can send a regular email fine, but the PDF attached is not. This used to work. I am curious, is this being blocked from my end or the clients? I think clients because it says postini and I am running Exchange 2007.

Sounds to me like the destination postini server is rejecting the message due to the content (file attachment)...
That's what I was thinking, but.. when i goto message headers, I dont see the recipient email server listed.
PostIni is a service that filters SPAM/viruses, etc. (I use it for my organization). The way it works is my organization's incoming mail server is defined as one of the PostIni servers - their server in turn will reject, silently drop, or deliver the message to my server - so you wouldn't expect to see the actual recipient server address in the headers.
You should advise the recipient to put you on their "allow list"

hello
that's what i assumed. but on my message headers i dont see any communication between the exchange server of mine and the clients mail, like i normally do when i get other errors or what not.

That's because your mail is being rejected by the PostIni server before your message is even attempted to be delivered to his e-mail server (that's how PostIni works). So the message headers should reflect communication between your server and the PostIni server.
Right, I dont see communication between myself and postini though, i see it listing my exchange server but no other remote service.
