Striking this issue myself. Not sure if exactly the same issue but I work with a large number of external parties (not on my business domain) through teams channels and not sure why sharing files with trusted external parties need to be blocked but for some reason it is....
It would be good if there was a setting to control messaging policies for chats with external parties, but there are no options in the Teams Admin center for this (at least as far as I can see). I use 3rd party document management software so the ability to share actual files and not links is critical otherwise I may as well revert to email messages.
Sorry I can't help but perhaps someone else has a workaround or idea for this.

NickPuzzle The other options are to use Teams and Channels. You would need to bring the external parties in as Guests (which have higher permissions than External users) or set up shared channels with their tenant.
