I have Avast running just fine with Thunderbird 0.8 and Spampal in series with it. It “stamps” the mail, inbound and outbound, with the “clean” message - the HTML version. If I use exactly the same set up with Outlook 2002 the stamping works if I post in HTML. However, I like to use plain text only. If I set Outlook to post and read in plain text only, it doesn’t stamp the mail as clean either in or out. If I get an HTML message inbound - say a read receipt from either Outlook or Outlook Express, it stamps it inbound as clean - but I think the read receipts are always HTML. Since there is a template for both email and plain text built in, I am either missing something basic or the plain text stamping doesn’t work. Can anyone help with a reason or a fix?
Have you setup the outlook/exchange provider correctly in the on-access control panel?
As far as I know, yes. Actually, I’ve been watching more closely since I last posted, and the stamping would appear to fail with plain text messages in Thunderbird too. I really can’t fathom this one out - I assume it should work inbound and outbound all the time with any type of message. I’ve repeatedly checked my anti-spam settings and can’t see why they should be stripping the stamp - if anything were wrong I would expect them to strip HTML from messages.
Upgrade to Avast 4.5 Beta and see if that solves it. There are a lot of fixes in the new version.
If I did not miss anything in the forums, Eddy is right. There were some HTML compatibility that new version tryed to solve.
It’s strange this problem now. I use OE and Thunderbird (and less often Pegasus Mail) and no problems with adding notes both in HTML and TXT messages, both clean and infected ones (the last ones, well, few of times thanks God 8)).
I had a look for Beta 4.6 but could only see the Network version on there, not the personal version - am I missing it, or is it hard to find.
