Walker,
I have not forgotten about you.
Techie,
No problem at all, it is not an easy one
Vojtech has, as you know, jumped in. Give him a break over the weekend
,perhaps it has nothing to do with the rest of the Alwil team who have been active on the forum
.. I don't know.
I'm not thinking your suggestion is 'nuts'
(anything is worth a try). The only problem is, because it's an intermittent problem and I never know when it is going to happen, I would be without apps that I use whilst waiting for the problem to occur.
This doesn't stop my e-mail totally, I can always remove the routing through localhost and Avast when it happens (remove the 127.0.0.1 and #mailserver) from my Pegasus a/c's config and then can send/receive mail again. It is just a real nuisance to have to go through this and then reset it all again.
As mentioned earlier, I have the logs on but for the reasons I said, I haven't caught anythng yet :'(
However, whilst your mentioning 'nuts'
.. .. I'll throw something else in. I don't
think it is relavent, so I have been trying NOT to confuse the situation further, but at this stage, what the heck
In Pegasus I have 9 a/c's (one is duplicated and used to send/receive ALL a/c's). Five of the a/c's are ISP hosted the other four are on my websites domain mail servers.
The five ISP hosted a/c's include three that have the (what Technical finds strange
) username format (ie the mail server appended to the username). The four 'hosted' a/c's are a more common username format.
Now I'm not saying that the username format is the problem, this is just for the 'pot'. But it
sometimes, but not always only one of these nine a/c's that fails to connect through Avast (the first one to be checked). Again, I say 'sometimes', but I get the feeling that by the time Pegasus/Avast get to the second and so on a/c's to be checked the interaction between which ever program is causing the problem has 'sorted itself out' !. Perhap's this is 'nuts', but I'm stumped for ideas.
Another thing I mentioned to the Alwil team some time ago, was I get the gut feeling that the situation gets worst and/or improves with Avast update versions. But you know what it is like when your pulling your hair out looking for answers.. :'(
Thanks as always for your interest
Walker
