Exchange 2003 placing attachment zip files on quarantine.
Hello Guys, I need some help in here, I'm running exchange 2003 on a SBS server 2003, and one of my users got a attachment placed on quarantine "somewhere"... Here is the attachment that came on place of the zip file that he should have received: ---- FILE QUARANTINED The original contents of this file have been replaced with this message because of its characteristics. File name: 'winmail.dat->filenamehere.zip' Virus name: 'Exceedingly compressed size' ---- I did some research on this, and all topics points out to some forefront settings related to the zip file size, but I do not have forefront on my server. So my question is: Is there a way to disable it ? can I still find this attachment somewhere? Thanks a lot...

Perhaps not. But how about Antigen? Is that installed? It's not Exchange that's doing this, it's the AntiVirus software. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
