Avast problem with mac mail

Avast! Sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with Mac Mail. Here are some common problems and potential solutions to help you troubleshoot:

Problem 1: Avast blocking Mac Mail

Solution: Try temporarily disabling Avast's email scanning feature. Go to Avast > Preferences > Email > Settings, and toggle off "Scan emails" or "Scan attachments". Then, try sending an email to see if the issue persists.

Problem 2: Mac Mail not connecting to server

Solution: Check your Mac Mail settings to ensure they're correct. Go to Mac Mail > Preferences > Accounts > [Your Email Account], and verify the server settings (e.g., incoming and outgoing mail servers, port numbers, and authentication settings).
Also, try restarting your Mac Mail app or restarting your Mac to see if that resolves the issue.

Problem 3: Avast flagging legitimate emails as spam

Solution: Try whitelisting your email account in Avast. Go to Avast > Preferences > Email > Whitelist, and add your email address or domain to the list. This should help Avast recognize legitimate emails from your account.

Problem 4: Mac Mail not sending emails

Solution: Check your Mac Mail settings again to ensure they're correct. Also, try restarting your Mac Mail app or restarting your Mac to see if that resolves the issue.
If you're using a third-party email client, try switching to the built-in Mac Mail app to see if the issue persists.

Problem 5: Avast causing Mac Mail to crash

Solution: Try temporarily disabling Avast's email scanning feature (as mentioned earlier) or uninstalling Avast and reinstalling it. If the issue persists, you may want to contact Avast support for further assistance.
