PC config: Windows 7 RC
Security: Avast, Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, Comodo Internet Security(firewall only)
I use Thunderbird as my E-mail client. But avast displays the following message:
avast! has detected a secure connection from your email program to the IMAP server xxxxxxx.
This type of connection cannot be checked for viruses. Please disable SSL/TLS in your mail-client so that the mail scanner can scan your mail. The Mail Scanner will provide the SSL/TLS security itself.
Should I pay heed to this advice. If yes, how to disable SSL/TLS in thunderbird?
