"Link Disabled" Outlook Web Access has disabled this link for your security - exchange 2007
Pop up window: Link Disabled
message: Outlook Web Access has disabled this link for your security
I'm getting this message from a message sent linking to a word doc on one of our online education systems when I access it with OWA 2007. I don't want exchange to block any urls, and I'm not sure how to enable this?
The link works fine if I click it with outlook 2003 and even OWA 2003.
I don't get any hits on this message on microsoft.com at all... please help!

in EMC, under server config, client access, pull up the properties of the /OWA then hit the "remote file servers" tab. That'll give you all the settings you need if the link was to a file server.
Or was the link a URL to a web page?

Was the link 'clean'?
Like no IP's in the hostname or phishing charactaristics?

It's one of our web servers- here is what the link points to- granted, it's ugly but it is one of our own web servers and it's generating lots of links for different assignments:

no FQDN? That could be the issue.

But it works with owa 2003- I sent copies of the message to a 2007 mailbox and a 2003 mailbox- opens fine in owa 2003, not in owa 2007. I don't want links blocked at all... is there a way to allow them?

And something else odd... the link does have the FQDN when I look at it in owa 2003....

Ok, we found out (kind of) what's happening, but I still don't know how to fix it. The e-mails are being sent as html, using a base in the header, and a relative path in the body. I still don't get why 2007 can't put them together- and if I forward this message from owa 2003 to owa 2007, the message works- so apparantly owa 2003 actually constructs a single complete url...

Microsoft re-wrote how OWA 07 and Outlook 07 render HTML...something with code execution and style sheets. Supposedly there is a feature doc on this diff from 03on MSDN, but i didn't see it with a quick search.
