Title: timeout error
Post by: Guezt_007 on July 26, 2005, 11:56:32 AM

i am using thunderbird for a while, but now when i activate the option to scan outgoing mail (smtp)in avast, i'm sometimes getting an timeout error. (mostly when i'm sending files larger then 2 mb). When i deactivate the option in avast, no error occurs.
i can see a difference in the way files are sent. when sending mail with attachment and with the option to scan outgoing files, the status bar goes rapidly form 0% to 99% and then keeps hanging, when sending the exactly same mail without the scanning option the status bar goes slowly to 100% and mail is sent succesfully.

Increase the time out in the email client as well as in avast4.ini
This has been explained many times before.
