Plain Text messages get corrupted

... It makes sense to 'check' incoming mail doesn't it? Not really. Every AV program of which I'm aware has a real-time or on-access scanner that monitors any file that you open If you get an infected message and attempt to launch the payload, that on-access scanner will detect the infection at that point. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Also why do you mention mail sending when I was talking about mail reception? -- Tadjio |

... What trouble? Please can you be more specific? Spend a little time browsing this newsgroup and you'll see all the trouble scanning mail can cause. Also why do you mention mail sending when I was talking about mail reception? Usually when you have mail scanning enabled, it scans both incoming and outgoing messages. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Do you know a very nice application ' Advanced Outlook Repair' (http://www.datanumen.com/aor/). It is a powerful tool to recover messages, folders and other objects from corrupt or damaged Microsoft Outlook PST files. Tadjio;248843 Wrote: For me, switching 'outgoing' off wasn't sufficient. I had to switch off Bullguard's Spamfilter. -- Tadjio "Robin" wrote in message ... I do agree unles one is ever vigilant and have turned incoming back on. The reasoning behind having outgoing off does make sense and it has resolved the problem. Robin "Tadjio" wrote in message ... I also looked at the incoming and outgoing mail monitoring in Bullguard. At present I have them unchecked too until this issue is resolved. It makes sense to 'check' incoming mail doesn't it? -- Tadjio "Robin" wrote in message ... Yes that fixed everything. I also notice that Bullguard has boxes in its virus checker for both incoming and outgoing mail that you can uncheck. They are now unchecked. Thanks for your help. And I learned a few things too. Robin "Tadjio" wrote in message ... I have run the Office 2007 installation "Repair" facility. It works after the necessary system restart but then stops working after the next restart of the PC :-( -- zwr ------------------------------------------------------------------------ zwr's Profile: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/member.php?userid=168 View this thread: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/sh...ad.php?t=68360 |
