Avast 5 and Incredimail
« on: February 01, 2010, 10:57:35 PM »
My wife & I have just upgraded our Avast! 4.8's to 5, she uses Incredimail as her email client.  Avast 5 keeps telling her to disable SSL encryption in her mail client so Avast can handle it, but neither of us can find any options in Incredimail to disable SSL encryption.  For now I've unchecked the setting in Real-Time Shields, Mail Shield, Expert Settings, SSL Accounts, Automatically detect & warn about unprotected SSL connections, so it will stop bugging my wife.

So what gives?  Doesn't Avast 5 play well with Incredimail anymore?  Avast 4.8 was fine with it...       -kd5-

avast 4.8 can not scan SSL mail so it was quiet and did not scan your mail, avast 5 can scan SSL mail and have detected the settings for your mail account, that is why you see the nagg pop up

So you have to change the account settings, if you want avast to scan the mail.
I have never used incredimail so i have no idea where the settings are
