Kinda hard to have a meaningful conversation when someone makes comments
"Check the Avast mail shield SSL settings (...) or you have some leftover manual config there from older versions" and fails to clarify (
what did you mean? leftover settings where?).
Identical problem here, also after upgrade to Avast! 2014. One account only: Gmail, IMAP mail server using port 993, SSL/TLS, SMTP using port 465 (generally, I would recommend against using port 25). Obviously Avast! bug which will be fixed. Pity about people asking irrelevant questions and contributing little. What to do? Disable Avast! Mail Shield until permanent fix released or downgrade. Yes, I know, it is a free software. Yes, I know, it is my first post here.
anything?
You know, people normally need to get some sleep as well...
Does the POP3 server support SSL, TLS or anything like that? Kinda hard to test without having an account.
