Anyone know where the tutorial on setting up the > Bat with NAV2001 is located? I can find them for Pegasus, Eudora, > etc, but not The_Bat. I'm guilty of that post. NAV2001 doesn't know (and doesn't need to know) that TB exists. NAV has a POP3 port and registers itself on your computer with the server name pop3.norton.antivirus. You can use any POP3 client to retrieve mail from this "virtual server". You need to set up email scanning manually. Because NAV itself doesn't locate and configure the email client, it doesn't report TB as a protected client. You can only tell that NAV is scanning from the system tray icon and from the actions NAV takes when it catches a virus. FYI, here's the procedure again: 1. Open NAV2001, either from the Start menu or by double-clicking the system tray icon. In NAV2001, click Options. 2. In the Options dialog box, expand Email Protection, select Advanced. 3. Select Enable Manual Configuration, click OK, then close NAV2001. 4. In TB, open the account properties sheet, then select Transport. 5. Note the server name in the Mail Server box. Add a slash, then the mail server to the user name. For example, if your user name is fred and the Mail Server is mail.mydomain.com, the user box should read fred/mail.mydomain.com. 6. Replace the value in the Mail Server box with pop3.norton.antivirus. 7. Save these settings. You can also find this procedure in the NAV2001 help (start by looking for "email" in the index).
