Correct, Avast mail scanner is working transparantly on NT based systems, not on 9x/me.
I have an idea, but I can’t promise it will work.
-
Create a backup of Avast4.ini
-
Than change the mail section part in avast4.ini so that these settings are there:
[MailScanner]
Log=20
DefaultPopServer=
DefaultSmtpServer=
ShowTrayIcon=1
UseDefaultSmtp=0
AutoSetProtection=0
PopListen=
SmtpListen=
ImapListen=
-
Setup the mail as if Avast isn’t there.
-
Check if the mail is working
-
Run the mail protection wizzard (close the email client first ofcourse)
-
Check the mail again.
Does this solves the problem?
If not, put back the copy of Avast4.ini
The line Log=20 enables extended logging of what is going on and may tell us more if the mail scanning still isn’t working.
