mail shield will interfere in no case with web interfaces (ie mail access in browsers). If you want mail shield protection, you need to setup an email client (Windows Live Mail/Outlook/Thunderbird) and associate your email account (s) there in IMAP/POP + SMTP. Instructions for using a Gmail account (ssl access) through the mail shield proxy are in Avast knowledge base, as linked by Pondus.
