Hi mantra,
if You have updated via the update function in Avast then everything should be fine.

What's the problem ?

i'm speaking about this

Transparent email (SMTP/POP3/IMAP4) scanner

The Internet Mail provider has been enhanced so that it is now able to filter email traffic automatically, without the need of reconfiguration of the mail client programs. This is realized by employing a low-level network filtering driver that is able to intercept all communication streams and divert them to the avast! mail scanner.

In previous versions of avast!, users could use so-called Mail Protection Wizard - an easy application that helped them to set up their mail clients to use avast without the need of reconfiguration of the account details. The Mail Protection Wizard is now deprecated (except for Windows 9x
* mantra based systems where the transparent mail scanning feature is not available).

POP3: localhost

Account name: your_own_pop_server_address&your_name
SMTP authentication only if needed
Port number: the same as set on Spamihilator
