2017-01-05
fixed in assp 2.5.6 build 17005:
- the assp.pl autoupdate feature was STILL somehow brocken after 2.5.3
build 16363
(hope i've got it fixed)
added:
- copy ham, copy spam and the resend feature have failed, if the 8BITMIME
SMTP-extension was required by the
mail content, but were not announced by the MTA
the hidden configuration parameter 'CCignore8BitMIME' is added to ignore
this issue - default is '0'
$main::CCignore8BitMIME = 0;
# (0/1) CCham, ForwardSpam and resend will ignore a missing 8BITMIME
extension
- copy ham, copy spam and the resend feature have failed on some
MS-Exchange MTA's, because duplicate mails
(Message-ID, Date [, To]) were silently delete by the Exchange SPAM
protection
If this parameter is set to '1', the 'Date:' headerline will be changed
to the current action time.
default is '0'
$main::CCchangeMSGDate = 0;
# (0/1) change the date: header on CC.. ForwardSpam and resend -
MS-Exchange may require this,
because duplicate mails may removed silently

Betreff: Re: [Assp-test] ForceResend blocked PDF
I found the problem with ForceResend messages not being received. As you
suspected, the problem is NOT with ASSP. The problem is with Exchange (of
course it is, Exchange is exchange after all!).
Because a message with the same message ID and client receive time was
already received by Exchange (albeit with an attachment stripped), the
message is deleted by exchange, without notice to the user, sender, or
sending MTA. It's just categorized as a duplicate.
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/exchange/2004/07/14/how-does-duplicate-detection-work/
So, I can either turn off duplicate detection in Exchange (initially at
least, this seems like a bad idea) or I can change the message ID or
client send time (also worrisome). If ASSP was changed to magically alter
the message ID upon resend, that would cause threading problems right? I
guess it (or I) could slightly change the sending time. I'd love some
feedback on what you think is the best approach.

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
