Author/Date | optional virus scan |
newman 30/09/2004 3:42am | do you have any idea of adding optional virus scan selection for incoming and outgoing mails?. I am using a dedicated virus scan for my system and I want to scan mails downloaded by iScribe and also sending mails from iScribe. As per the manual you already have built-in scaner. Even though adding a optional scan will be of additional security.

n8chavez 30/09/2004 6:32am | What virus scanner are you using? Typically scanning would have to be configured on your rather than in the client. It would help if I knew your scanner than I could tell you how to do it. |
newman 30/09/2004 6:39am | yeah I am using avast but it does not recognizes iScribe but only scans for OE which is not default client. |
n8chavez 30/09/2004 3:42pm | Are you using avast free or pro. If it is a free virus scanner you are looking for may I suggest AVG 7. With AVG you can manually configure the email scanner. Also, panda is giving users one a one year license for free. Get it by filling out the survey here:

Bardo 01/10/2004 9:22pm | The problem lies with the virus-scanner and not with Scribe. I use Norton AV, which scans all email, whatever client is being used. Email comes in via port 127, as far as I know, so you should configure your virusscanner to scan port 127, like n8chavez points out. |
n8chavez 01/10/2004 9:49pm | Well Bardo is almost correct,
Is you are using POP3 as your tranfers protocol then it is sent via port 110 IMAP uses port 143 IMAP 3 uses 220 Set your scanner to use the appropriate port. When you have decided on a scanner and if you need help setting it up, let me know. |
newman 02/10/2004 5:34am | hello thanx for the info. I shall make the changes. |
