Default Cannot receive emails

Antivirus scanning of incoming email has led to hundreds of users having
problems, all of which have been resolved by disabling the scanning, or
removing the offending antivirus product. Your opinion of what is necessary
for you does not apply to everyone. For more information about the subject,
you might want to try reading the following section of an article about the

I have to respectfully disagree somewhat, although that may be what needs
to be done if the XP doesn't have the SP's installed. In which case, there
are other, much more glaring holes in the OS, so NBD I guess.

Turning OFF Outgoing scanning makes sense very often, especially with long
mails or attachments. But INcoming virus scans should not be turned off,
IMO, and I haven't yet found an updated properly installed XP system have
any problems with incoming mail scanning. If one does discover that
turning them off helps a particular circumstance, they should still be
turned back on unless/until it's verified that's the ONLY way to retrieve
the mail in question. Personally, I'd be off looking for malware in such
a case.

Some will say it's OK to turn off incoming scans because the av sw will
catch it anyway later on, but that's not true with some of the stuff out
there today; if it can get onto the hard drive, it can hide and activate
and get under the radar to to speak because it morphs into something else
unbeknownst to the os.

Just my two cents, and a chance to voice an opposing view, that's all. I
was unaware of such morphing until recently but there are a couple of
strains that aren't detected due to it by the time they reach the hard
drive, and can then execute. Unfortunately, I cannot cite references: I
can't find the danged things anymore. If I can locate them, I'll come
back and post them.

Regards,

Pop

Turn off the e-mail scanning in your anti-virus.

If you have an Anti-Spam program, that can also be the cause of the
error.
