I also added SMTPRedirectPort=25,215,225 to my .ini file. I am not getting any errors and my Yahoo and Hotmail are sending mail and scanning with avast using Thunderbird, Hotmailpopper and YahooPOPs!
Thanks, gwheaton. Great hint!
I use only Hotmail paid subscriptions within Outlook Express. I just made the following attempt.
Please kindly confirm all added information in resulting [Mail Scanners] section is correct.
Please confirm the POP port for Hotmail is 110, SMTP port for hotmail is 25. Thank you!============================
