I've had some problems one month ago with Email Shield error, recreated: SSL_connect error 336031996 that I couldn't fix so I did a format(time too anyway) reinstalling and setting up Thunderbird and than Outlook Express was a Nightmare. Avast was very aggressive when setting up email accounts Avast was freaking out :'( because our email server doesn't use SSL or other encryption so Avast kept on over riding my manual commands and searching for what it(Avast)thought it should be
I did find a fix I Stopped Email Shield bingo I could sent email.
I have updated Avast to 5.0.677 Turning on Email Shield the error returns, SSL_connect error 336031996
Recreated SSL_connect error 336031996. With Thunderbird 3.1.3
I would like to be using Email Shield what can I do
Sorry about the pic size, all done now.
