Hi,

My email was working fine but since yesterday when I try and send an email with an attachment it keeps saying...

Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups

Your message wasn't delivered because the recipient's email provider rejected it.

Diagnostic information for administrators:

Generating server: AS8PR07MB7336.eurprd07.prod.outlook.com

Remote server returned '550 5.7.520 Message blocked because it contains content identified as spam. AS(4810)'

How do I sort this problem out? Thanks

Or if you are sending with PDF, you can convert PDF file to PNG. It will be sent normally.

Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience this might cause you. I totally understand how frustrating and time consuming this would be for you.
