Checking mail but sometimes not stamping

[system]

WinXP-SP2, Outlook Express, Avastv4.5

Just occasionally I get mail that Avast doesn’t mark as ‘checked’. If I check the properties and look at the headers I can see that Avast is actually checking it but the ‘stamp’ isn’t appended to the email.
I think it happens with Hotmail and occasionally mail from other sources.
It’s not so much a problem - I know the mail’s being scanned - I’m just curious.
Can anybody explain?

Love the program BTW!

I think you should post this in the Avast Home/Pro 4.5 Beta Forum.
Just a suggestion. ;D

Version 4.1 cannot protect Hotmail. As you’re using the 4.5, can you see in the headers of the messages (Right click the message, choose Properties and Details), for instance:

X-Antivirus: avast! (VPS 0444-1, 27/10/2004), Inbound message
X-Antivirus-Status: Clean

Do you have these lines there or not?
If not, well, you’re in danger :-\
