6032 and 6033 are breaking access to local devices with self signed certificates...    I thought I had it fixed in Firefox with 6032 (import new Avast certificate) then 6033 broke it all again.  Worse, I have a PaleMoon configuration to specifically access a local device that only has RC4.  Avast now appears to block or break any RC4 encryption completely which is ok for the web as a whole, but not fine for a designated local sub-net -- browsers already provide that protection.   Clearly turning off HTTPS scanning solves the problem, but also opens up a big hole in protection.   Please go back to before 6032!

Hi petr, I believe I successfully reproduced the mail shield issue on Windows 7 VM, and unfortunately the issue is still there with this latest beta. :(
No problem with Win10 machine.

Here is what I found:

For Receiving:
- The issue only happens when SSL/TLS encryption for POP3 is used. Plain-text POP3 is not affected
- If I specify encryption protocols as "TLS1.2", it works fine. When set to "Automatic" (default), it fails
- The client throws error code 0x80090304, saying "Failed to initialize SSL"

For Sending:
- The issue only happens when SSL/TLS encryption for SMTP is used. Plain-text SMTP is not affected
- Specifying encryption protocols does not work for SMTP
- If I specify encryption protocols as "TLS1.2", it works fine. When set to "Automatic" (default), it fails
- The client throws error code 0x80090308 or 0x80090304 depending on e-mail providers, saying "Failed to initialize SSL"

The client uses SChannel for SSL/TLS encryption.

Support package ID is: 9EGMP


Hope this helps.


Edit: I found a wrong setting in testing environment. Specifying protocols works for SMTP too when correctly set.
