I’ve got a variety of accounts, and I’ve set it up fine for those on 110, but I’ve got some that go through other local POP3 proxies (hotmail popper, yahoo pops etc). Can you tell it another port number to connect to somehow on a per account basis?
That thread is a bit confused, but I got enough tips to work out the answer anyway.
In my case I had local port 110 free so I didn’t need to mess with DefaultPopServer. All I needed to do was tell Avast the port number of the other proxy by putting it delimited with a colon.
It does seem to be a bug with the Mail Protection Wizard that it doesn’t configure this for you (in OE at least).
If before running the wizard you have:
POP3 server xxx.yyy.zzz
port 8110
username aaa@bbb.ccc
