I have used the Email protection Wizard and when I get emails I can see the icon moving across in the system tray. However the scanned message is not being inserted.
I have also tried manually setting up with:
SMTP SERVER
127.0.0.1
username#smtp.provider.co.nz (in authorisation )
Not dumb, the 127.0.0.1 should have worked the . ‘periods’ are separators and as such you shouldn’t need the last one, strange; perhaps adding the last period separator was coincidental.
Sorry if I’m being silly, but are you changing the mail.server.com to your real mail server name?
And the #user by your real email user account?
Did you check to add notes in clean messages into avast settings?
Don’t forget that you will not see the inserted note in the ‘Sent Items’ folder of your mail program, because avast adds the note after the mail leaves the mail program.
