I've been advised to disable outbound mail scanning because since I put Avast on my laptop, and it determined that an article i was emailing (from yahoo's opening page to my personal email address on outlook express) was unsafe, it stopped it from transmitting, and every subsequent email has been in queue behind it ever since...it's been months now, and I haven't been able to fix it.
I received this error message:
An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'Emailing: Personality Set for Life By 1st Grade, Study Suggests - Yahoo! News', Account: 'optonline.net', Server: 'mail.optonline.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '554 Suspicious message', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 554, Error Number: 0x800CCC6F
After asking for help on another site, I was told to try disabling the outbound mail screening on Avast...
I looked around Avast, but see no specific place that mentions outgoing mail scan or similar.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance.
