Symptoms
Consider the following scenario:
-
You’re running Microsoft Exchange Server 2019.
-
Your instance of Exchange Server is compliant for Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS).
-
You have a transport rule set to “scan for executable content.”
In this scenario, when you try to send a PDF file through Exchange Server, the program stops responding, and the message isn’t delivered to users.
Resolution
To fix this issue, install Cumulative Update 12 for Exchange Server 2019 or a later cumulative update for Exchange Server 2019.
