It's always a good idea to exclude mailbases from scanning for that reason. Be it tb or k9 or whatever mailbases. But in that case the problem would not be a plugin not working but tb failing to download the mail at all. -- Bye, Andre Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I used K9 before I installed Avast, and thus never knew there was a way of Avast moving viruses directly into quarantine nor that K9 would influence its behavior in any way. AFAIC I don't mind to handle the occasional virus (2-4 per month) manually, but if there is a way to automatize it, I'd be interested too. -- Cheers Peter If your attack is going well, then it's an ambush...

However, it causes a problem for my AV plugin (Avast), which heretofore would flag viruses and automatically move them to the quarantine folder. Now when when one comes in, Avast catches it, but I have to deal with it through the Avast interface instead. Granted, Avast still catches them, but it was a lot cleaner when the plugin just moved them automatically to the quarantine folder. Is there any way to configure either K9, TB!, or Avast to restore that functionality? That's strange. The plugin works on messages as they come in from the mailserver. Whether that mailserver is your actual mailserver or k9 shouldn't make a difference at all. You mean the plugin catches it? And what then? Is there some error message? Have you tried removing and readding the plugin in tb? -- Bye, Andre Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Have you tried removing and AW readding the plugin in tb? There is a pop-up from Avast announcing that a virus has been found, and asking how to proceed (delete or quarantine). I cannot find a setting anywhere to move all infected mails to quarantine (or delete) automatically either. I understood that this is what Richard wants. Maybe this option has been removed by Avast in the latest program update. Just a wild guess, but at least I don't believe it has to do with K9. -- Cheers Peter Famous last words - Don't worry, I can handle it.

I just looked there and Check incoming mail for viruses wasn't ticked. Obviously in this case Avast does it on its own, and presents the pop-up window when there is a virus. -- Cheers Peter Pepsi Brings You Back to Life was translated into Chinese as Pepsi Brings Your Ancestors Back from the Grave.
