How do I get my AVG to check my incoming and outgoing Yahoo E-Mails?

Question

I have followed the instructions that they give to but it is so confusing. I thought I had it done but none of my emails are getting checked. Please help if you have a less confusing way of setting it up. Thanks.

How to create servers for scanning e-mails - SSL communication

In some unique cases you have to create the incoming/outgoing servers in the AVG E-mail Scanner manually. The typical case is when you are using secure communication (SSL). In this case you have to change the AVG E-mail Scanner configuration this way:

    * open AVG - menu Tools - Advanced Settings - E-mail Scanner - Servers
    * go to POP3 - AutoPOP3, and edit this server:
          o Type of login: Fixed host; fill in your POP3 server and port (e.g. pop3.mymail.com:995)
          o Local port: 5100
          o Connection: SSL Default (or SSL, based on your e-mail provider)
          o make sure that the server is activated
    * now go to SMTP - AutoSMTP, and edit the server:
          o Type of login: Fixed host; fill in your SMTP server and port (e.g. smtp.mymail.com:465)
          o Local port: 5200
          o Connection: SSL Default (or SSL, based on your e-mail provider)
          o make sure that the server is activated


This way, the AVG E-mail Scanner is set up to communicate with your e-mail server using SSL encryption. Now, please configure your e-mail client so that it connects to the  instead of the actual e-mail server. The servers configuration will be:

    * POP3
          o server: 127.0.0.1
          o port: 5100
          o user name / password: same as before (i.e. your e-mail username and password)
          o encryption: NONE (SSL disabled)
    * SMTP
          o server: 127.0.0.1
          o port: 5200
          o authentication: same as before
          o user name / password: same as before (if required)
          o encryption: NONE (SSL disabled)

The "E-mail Scanner" component should automatically scan your emails for you. If it doesn't, maybe you could try upgrading to the latest version. 

You can download it here:

Just make sure the component is always "Active".
