EMClient - Avast is blocking gmail IMAP from connecting.

So I use the popular eM Client for e-mail and since I installed Avast, my Gmail account cannot connect.

I have tried adding Avast to the allow eM Client to all connections in the firewall but it still happens.

The only way to stop it is to disable the Mail Shield which I would still like to keep active.

Any ideas?

In mailshield you have to disable/scan incomming mail.
