Email Protection

Email protection scans email messages and attachments before they are received or sent. It detects infections and then removes them before they can do any damage. (See How System Shield handles infected email messages for more information.)

Email protection can scan both incoming and outgoing messages, and it works with any email application that uses POP3 (for incoming) and SMTP (for outgoing) messages.

The Email protection in System Shield requires a POP3-compatible email client. This includes many email programs, such as:

Microsoft Outlook Express version 4 or later
Microsoft Outlook 97 or later
Netscape Messenger 4 or later
Netscape Mail version 6 or later
Eudora Light version 3, Eudora Pro version 4, Eudora version 5
Pegasus 4 or later
And others

Note: Email protection does not support IMAP clients, AOL clients, POP3s with SSL, Lotus Notes mail, and web-based email that is not configured to support POP3.
