Avast 6 not scanning emails in Outlook 2010

I have reciently upgraded from Outlook 2007 to Outlook 2010 x32.

I checked the mail shield and realised that it isnt scanning any incoming or outgoing emails at all.

I have setup the accounts to scan SSL and Imap as i had to do for outlook 2007 also and its still not having any of it.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi,

I have encountered same problem few days ago. Outlook 2010 has in-built security controls like SSL & IMAP. So you have to deactivate in-build security of your Outlook 2010 account, in order to take control over it by avast!. Then your mail shield will display scanned mails.

Cheers…

how do u do that? lol

In your account connections…

Change it from using SSL to standard ports. Read here, click on section 4 (advanced) and see the screenshot. http://sonic.net/support/ss/windows/outlook07/settings.shtml#advanced
