    Hi @mbandurski18 ,

    According to my research, seems like there is no way to 'list' the rejected attachments.
    Since you could check the rule that blocked the message, you can use Get-TransportRule to check the details.

    Also the best practice is to add a notification to Sender or Recipient when the rule is doing it's job.

    Why not generate an incident report in the rule and send it to another mailbox so you can view the original email that was blocked and see what attachment was in there?
