hi.  i have discovered what i believe is a new bug in Avast 1443 beta.  When i try to send mail from hotmail using Mozilla Thunderbird, the SMTP server always times out.  this does not happen in Avast 1426, and it does not happen when i send email using my Comcast email account.  hopefully this bug can be corrected in upcoming betas.  have a pleasant day.

Hi Philbee,
I experienced the same issue and it had something to do with SSL the best I can remember. I fixed it but unfortunately can't remember what exactly it was, if Avast setting or Thunderbird setting. Sorry!  :-[

if anyone knows of a fix, please post it here.  hopefully when the new final version comes out this will no longer be a problem.
