When installing Avast 5.0 I got this warning I needed to disable the SSL in Mailwasher so is it saying to uncheck “This Server requires a secure connection (SSL)” in both incoming and outgoing mail in Mailwasher and also in Windows Live Mail?
Just gotta say I really love the new design and layout of 5.0 great job!
Personally as a mailwasher pro user I have avast IgnoreProcess for mailwasher.exe. MailWasher doesn’t download the complete email to do its analysis, it only downloads the headers, a small part of the body, it doesn’t download images or attachments and it views what is downloaded in text only. Based on this I personally don’t feel that any negligible risk worth scanning duplication, but the choice is yours.
By editing the EmailShield.ini file, [MailScanner] section using notepad. C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Alwil Software\Avast5\EmailShield.ini
[MailScanner]
IgnoreProcess=MailWasher.exe add this line if you don’t already have an IgnoreProcess line.
Save the changes to EmailShield.ini and exit, the avast self-defence module will ask are you sure about the changes, etc. answer Yes.
