Do you have URLScan installed? By default, the URLScan utility blocks
access to messages that contain the following characters in the Subject box
for the following reasons:
.. ; Does not allow directory traversals
./ ; Does not allow trailing dot on a directory name
\ ; Does not allow backslashes in URL
: ; Does not allow alternate stream access
% ; Does not allow escaping after normalization
& ; Does not allow multiple CGI processes to run on a single request
If the subject line contains any of these characters, you will need to
modify the urlscan.ini, the DenyURLSequences section, and put a ";" in
front of the lines that contain characters that you want to be enabled.
Hope this helps!
Thank you,
