Hi snowflake!

What exactly do you mean?
Do you mean you want to test if avast! finds a virus in your emails or do you want to test if the messages avast! can write into emails (that they are clean) work…?

If you want to test if avast! finds viruses in your emails you can check this site out:

What I AM now needing is to find out how to get the Avast ‘clean’ message showing IN my outgoing and incoming emails

I have test mailed myself (in OE)but none of them show the ‘this mail has been checked by Avast 4 Home’ message on it ???

PLUS do I get a mail notification of replies to this thread …

Hi snowflake,

Are you using ssl secured email?

At the moment avast! 4 (Apparently V5 will be able to I think) cannot scan ssl secured emails. So if the email service you are using, is SSL secured then it will not be scanned without the intervention of another program such as Stunnel

Are you using ssl secured email?

Good question, not quite sure…sorry
I think it depends on the provider

What is the email provider?

I only use Gmail, so I only know about that, which is that Gmail requires SSL or it wont work.
