Insert note into clean message is repeating

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Using Avast 4.5-549 with Spampal (spampal is on port 111) causes two Avast notes - one at the end and one more or less in the centre of the email. The note in the centre destroys part of the email!!!

Without Spampal, all is fine!

Double POP3 scanning could due to avast4.ini file settings:

AutoRedirect=1
IgnoreLocalhost=1
PopRedirectPort=110
SmtpRedirectPort=25
ImapRedirectPort=143

Specificaly if you wanted to disabled port 110 and scan POP3 on 1123, for instance, change the line

PopRedirectPort=111

On the other hand, when you would setup all your mail clients as if avast! is not installed, you wouldn’t get a double scan. Your connections would be scanned just when they leave you PC - that is the communication between the email program and the POP3 server on the internet.

But, in fact, I’ll find if I can bring you more information about the one which destroys part of the email… Just I can’t find right now where is it :frowning:

After trying the above settings AND variations, these worked:

AutoRedirect=1
IgnoreLocalhost=0
PopRedirectPort=111

I assume setting PopRedirectPort to an alternate port and deactivating IgnoreLocalhost means that Avast is only scanning 127.0.0.1 (localhost) port 111?

You’re right, my fault! Sorry. :wink:
