Sending and receiving mail

I can only send or receive mail when opening up Windows mail. Clicking the
send/receive button while working in mail has no effect. I've checked the
options and have got ticked the button "send mail immediately" but no matter
what I do mail just sits in the outbox until I close down and then open up
again. Reading other threads, I have Norton anti-virus installed and don't
want to uninstall it if possible, can anybody suggest a solution please?

Re: Sending and receiving mail

Sorry to sound a numbskull, but I'm quite new to this - how do I disable
email scanning?

Re: Sending and receiving mail

I doubt this can be fixed without uninstalling Norton AV.
