when I open my mail through SBC yahoo, SBC scans my messages with their built in Anti Virus which is Norton 2005.
Sorry that doesn't answer my questions:
- Do you view your email on-line with your browser?
- Or do you download it and if so what email program do you use?
I too am ignorant, about SBC Yahoo, I don't use it or know how it works, hence the questions. Is SBC Yahoo an email client, in the same way as OE is an email client.
If you can download your yahoo mail using OE then it will be similar to Hotmail, it is not directly scanned by the Internet Mail provider, but when the email is saved to your inbox or other location, it can be scanned by Standard Shield.
This however, doesn't give the same level of protection as an account that the email is checked before it gets to your inbox.e]
