1) X-Assp-ForceResend:YES will skip the attachment check at resend time -
if the .eml file is removed from the resend folder by assp, the mail was
sent by assp - check your MTA logs
2) links in PDF files are wrong if
- it is a weblink with exe, bat, cmd, js, vba, wsh, ps1 - eg. a download
to an executable file
- it is a link to a local file: file:// - eg. an open request to a local
file (windows will open the right app, even the file has a wrong
extension)
for example: the user got a file test.txt which is an exe file not a
txt and stored it - than the user gets the PDF with the link to this local
file to start it (there are group policies in AD to prevent this behavior
in windows!!)

Betreff: [Assp-test] ForceResend blocked PDF
I have a user who received an email that had a blocked PDF because of a
link in it. The (external) user who created the PDF erroneously has a
link in it to
file:///C:/Users/Michele/Dropbox/Corresponding%20Secretary/Eblasts%202017%202018/
www.an-outside-domain.com/calendar when she meant to do
www.an-outside-domain.com/calendar
Questions:
1) I added X-Assp-ForceResend:YES to the top of the message and did a
resend from the GUI. I see the message quickly hit the resendmail folder
and then disappear as I'd expect. However, the recipient doesn't get the
mail at all, not even with the attachment still stripped. I confirmed
that the recipient is listed in the x-assp-intented-for header. What
could I be missing?
2) Am I right that AFC would block a pdf with such a link in it? (I like
that, but want to understand why this particular file is being blocked)
The message in the .txt file is: prohibited link in PDF file
THanks
