Hello mac_stitch,

Yes avast! and Thunderbird are compatible. No need to configure anything it’s all done for you, when you are sending or downloading mail, you will notice in your taskbar a mail sign, that means avast! is scanning your incoming or ourgoing mail.

Well, it is all done for you if you are:

  1. running Windows NT/2000/XP.

-and-

  1. using regular POP3/SMTP mail accounts with Thunderbird

If you are using Win98/Me then you will need the help of the avast Mail Wizard.

If you are using any third party programs with Thunderbird or the WebMail extensions for Yahoo/Hotmail etc. you will need a little more help. Let us know if you need that.

If you want the “clean” message inserted into your emails then:

Internet Mail scanner > Customize > POP3 tab > Check the box for “Insert note into clean message”

Same for outgoing mail on the SMTP tab.
