I am using Avast v5 free edition. I am using Thunderbird for my Email client. When enable the AV through the MailSheild my Thunderbird will not send/recieve emails, but when I disable it I am able to send/recieve the emails. Then when I tried to add my email settings for i.e. (pop.mydomain.net) then the port and so fort then click add it will not add/save the settings. Can someone help me in this area?
Thanks a million.

See - avast! 5.x: SSL Problems The Mail Shield may not scan some e-mails - see http://support.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=458.
What is your ISP/email server domain and do they require SSL/TLS ?

My ISP is Suddenlink.net
Pop server for incoming email is: pop.suddenlink.net
Smtp sever for outgoing email is: smtp.suddenlink.net
the port settings are
Pop for incoming is: 110
Outgoing: 25
Server doesn’t use SSL/TLS

Check the SSL/TLS settings in avast mail shield:
Open avast! → “Real time shields” tab → “Mail Shield” tab → “Expert settings” → SSL settings
This is steps 2 & 3 in DavidR’s link. Change the values to none, if they are not already set.
