|I'm running a combination of Avast! and PopFile, which works just fine for

I use pegasus mail,avast mail scanner and popfile
Let us say I have "realuser" account with "password"
on "RealPOP3server"
Mail scanner runs as 127.0.0.1 port25 - SMTP and
127.0.0.1 port 110 - POP3 server
POPFile runs as 127.0.0.1 port 123 - POP3 server
Note that you can have pop3 port number switched,
so does order of proxies, but I recommend the avast should touch the
mail first.
Connection is:
Sending: Pmail -> 127.0.0.1:25 (avast ) -> RealPOP3server
Receiving: Pmail -> 127.0.0.1:123 -> 127.0.0.1:110 -> RealPOP3server
Mail client settings:
As servername for both SMTP and POP3 put into your mail client:
127.0.0.1
Note that you can use multiple POP3, but not simultaneously,
but only one at the same time.
As username put this: 127.0.0.1:realuser#RealPOP3server
POP3 Port set to 123 (POPfile), password stay the yours, of coarse.
SMTP port set to 25
POPFile settings:
POPFile parses the strange user and passes
realuser#RealPOP3serverAs to avast
servername set for popfile again as 127.0.0.1
Port set to 110 (Avast)
Avast settings:
you should set the real smtp and the only / default pop3
during avast instalation. If not, locate .....\Avast\data\avast4.ini
and change the section:
[MailScanner]
DefaultPopServer="POP3.YOUR.DOMAIN"
;I think not important, real pop3names are passed
;from mailclient through popfile
DefaultSmtpServer=smtp.YOUR.DOMAIN"
ShowTrayIcon=1
UseDefaultSmtp=0
;do not know why, these setting works
;I think you can set it to 1 too
AutoSetProtection=0
