Title: Multiple mail accounts in Outlook
Post by: Tomson on April 07, 2004, 11:37:50 PM

Hi!

I'm new to Avast, actually everythink works fine, I just have one question.

In E-mail protection wizard I cannot add multiple e-mail providers. Is there an option to tell Avast to scan more than one email account?


Tnx

hi...

avast automatically adds multiple accounts..... ;)

as far as i know...the default smtp & pop server in the mail wizard is not for email scanning...but for sending maybe virus info to avast... ;)

try to run your mail wizard again...and it should work fine... :)

try this...

In the wizard make sure to select the option for all future accounts.

If you have Outlook (not Outlook Express!)  then you don't need the e-Mail-protection-wizard because Outlook is supported natively by avast!

You don't need the "Internet-Mail" Service too in that case. You only need the "Outlook/Exchange"-Service for eMail-Scanning. You can uninstall the Internet-Mail service if you only use Outlook (the eMail Protection-wizard will be automatically uninstalled then) :)
