Hi again Ray. I understand what you say about the folder path, no problem. But what I still don't get is how to tell ClamXav to do this automatically. I went to the toolbar under Preferences and found schedule. I also found the table that lists things like Documents and some other folders on the hard drive. When I find the entry in Preferences that says "With this ticked, if ClamXav encounters any files which contain email, they will be scanned. You still need to point ClamXav at your email folder for this option to make any difference!" that one is checked. What else do I need to do? I'm sorry if I seem dense here, but I'm not sure if I need to do anything else. Thanks.
