Question about receiving e-mails with Outlook

When sending an e-mail with attachment using Outlook, the Avast Icon shows up at the right bottom to show that Avast is scanning the outgoing email.

When receiving an email (with or without attachment) Avast does not show this icon…

Is Avast scanning the incoming e-mail anyway??? Even when the Avasat icon that shows up while receiving and sending emails with all my other mail clients does not show up?

Make sure the avast plugin is not disabled into MS Outlook:

Outlook 2003 > Help > About > Disabled items
Outlook 2000 > Tools menu > Options > Other > Advanced Options > Add-In Manager.
