Exchange 2007 OWA, students cannot save attachments

[jdibsdale]

Having an intermittant problem with OWA where students receive the following error when trying to save any attachment from their emails in OWA: "Internet explorer cannot download attachment.ashx from Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try later" I had read somewhere it was to do with the setting in Internet Explorer "Do not save encrypted web pages" which can be set to disabled in GPO, but I've still had intermittant problems with this still. Anyone had this trouble?

 

Thanks

Jenny

Some development... it's something specific to Internet Explorer because it works in Firefox, however they have to log in again with Firefox, it's not seamless.

Did an answer ever surface for this? Just migrated to Exchange 2010 and some users are having this same issue.

Is yours related to a browser type or an attachement type? For those users it doesn;t work for, test against different browser/attachment/PC etc...

Thanks, after some testing i established that the issue is browser related, the user in question is using IE8. I read somewhere that the browser cache can cause these issues but i haven't been able to find the switch to turn off browser caching yet. DOH!
