Hi,
I sat down and looked on the internet for a additional Icon program to show you of the progress of a download of a Outlook Express message.
Really did not find one so I went into the Avast “online Access Scanner” program boxes and found that Avast did give one an acceptable indicator.
This was found in the = “Internet Mail” = Customise =- Advanced = tick checked “Show detailed Info on Performed Action” also I feel the “Show Tray Icon when scanning mail” was previously been checked.
Please Note!
Now when one has a large sized email comming in or going out you do see a “Strip Indication” showing you all is going all OK
I thought my post may assist other Avast users who may not be aware of same!
Yes I found this solution to enable me to have a indicator functioning to show my internet mail downloads were in a progress of transfer. [This morning dad I had a further look in Avast “Help” and yes found = under “Resident Protection” - “Internet” Mail Provider Settings" - “Advanced Page” - “Show detailed info on performed action.” -]
Please note that previously before initiating same I found when I was receiving a Email with a large attachment I had no indiction if all was functioning all OK if or had is stopped transfer relating to a break down in the transfer from my provider!
Well I found it in the help menu, but didn’t put 2 and 2 together where it was I was to make the change. Finally went back and reread 'maybeok0’s orignal post and followed it. It works fine. Duh!
