Avast and Thunderbird Cannot establish TLS with SMTP server

[Al_Sim]

I still have this Problem:
If i run Thunderbird and Avast ver. 7.0.14.26

I can´t send Mails because this Window pop up:
_________________________________________________________________
Fehler beim Senden der Nachricht:
Der Mail-Server hat keine korrekte Begrüßung gesendet:
Cannot establish TLS with SMTP server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxx, SSL_connect error 5.
__________________________________________________________________

If i  deaktivate the mail security part of the programm, Thunderbird still works.
Is this an normal Problem?
If there are some solutions on other Topics, it would be nice to post an Link
Thanx
Al

Check this article - avast! 6.x, 7.x: SSL Problems The Mail Shield may not scan some e-mails - see https://support.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=842. Whilst this is an old article and mentions avast6 it is relevant for avast7 also.

If you are having difficulty with understanding the English knowledgebase article, you could try posting your question in the German sub-forum http://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=24.0.
