AVG Certification Message
I am bamboozled. I get emails from others (not necessarily using The Bat!) that have this string embedded: No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus. Version: 7.0.300 / Virus Database: 266.1.0 - Release Date: 18/02/2005 Is this text added automatically to The Bat messages or do I have to write my own macro to add this? (The AVG plug-in works fine.) In AVG 7 I have certify turned ON in both Incoming and Outgoing mail. I am still using Version 1.61 of The Bat! -- Paul S.

I wouldn't bother to add it. Nobody should rely on what a message says. It just gives a false sense of security. To exaggerate: This message contains no virus, no adware, no spyware and it isn't spam. Run this attachment now. It's good for you.

IMHO, it's totally ridiculous to add such a signature, especially when you have no attachment added. -- Best regards, Dick ___ Being in a nudist colony probably takes all the fun out of Halloween.

Hello Dick, DH This signature is added by the AVG system if you select the DH option to do so. IMHO, it's totally ridiculous to add such a DH signature, especially when you have no attachment added. OK, I agree -- I just wanted to know HOW this is accomplished (for my own amusement. g) As I stated, I have VERIFY turned on in AVG for both INCOMING and OUTGOING mail but nothing is added. I thought this was the OPTION but no verification text is added to my emails. What's the trick? -- Paul Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I stopped using AVG more than a year ago and as far as I can remember this signature is only supported for Outlook or Outlook/Express..maybe there are AVG guru's here who can confirm or correct this? -- Best regards, Dick ___ Fund = give money; amentalism = mindlessness.

I thought this was the OPTION but no verification text is added to my emails. You actually said certify in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Verify performs the check and certify adds a note about the positive result. Presumably the message is not sent if a virus _is_ found. The only possible use I can see for this is for testing purposes and I would _strongly_ urge anybody who has these ridiculous certifications in their emails to turn them off. What's the trick? If using the AVG plugin for TB! go to Options | Preferences | Protection | Anti-virus double-click AVG Plug-in for The Bat! on the list you find. Remove the ticks from both boxes marked certify mail. Press OK. If using AVG's generic email scanner, open the AVG control centre and doubleclick on email scanner then click configure, then remove the ticks... as above. If you want the certification messages on, say for testing or perhaps to annoy people, put those ticks back. If you click on details, you can customise the message (and change the language for the bits about versions and release dates). -- Best regards, MFPAmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v3.0.1.33 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
