Then you probably have to exclude K9's temporary directory from
AVAST's realtime scanning.

It's always a good idea to exclude mailbases from scanning for that  
reason. Be it tb or k9 or whatever mailbases. But in that case the problem  
would not be a plugin not working but tb failing to download the mail at  
all.

I used K9 before I installed Avast, and thus never knew there was a
way of Avast moving viruses directly into quarantine nor that K9 would
influence its behavior in any way. AFAIC I don't mind to handle the
occasional virus (2-4 per month) manually, but if there is a way to
automatize it, I'd be interested too.

That's strange. The plugin works on messages as they come in from the  
mailserver. Whether that mailserver is your actual mailserver or k9  
shouldn't make a difference at all. You mean the plugin catches it? And  
what then? Is there some error message? Have you tried removing and

There is a pop-up from Avast announcing that a virus has been found,
and asking how to proceed (delete or quarantine). I cannot find a
setting anywhere to move all infected mails to quarantine (or delete)
automatically either. I understood that this is what Richard wants.
Maybe this option has been removed by Avast in the latest program
update. Just a wild guess, but at least I don't believe it has to do
with K9.

I have only v2 here but this is not plugin specific. I can set the option  
even without an installed plugin. See PreferencesProtectionAnti

quarantine the mail. I wouldn't think this is removed in v3.

No, it isn't. I just looked there and Check incoming mail for
viruses wasn't ticked. Obviously in this case Avast does it on its
own, and presents the pop-up window when there is a virus.

Avast apparently is catching the viruses when K9 analyzes them and
flags them there before they ever get handed off to TB! They do get
caught, but some days I get for or five per session, so prefer they be
quarantined by TB! as before.
