Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Workstation
11.2.
Running Kaspersky Mail
Checker
Right after installed Kaspersky AV Mail Checker will start to display alert
messages. However, you will see these alerts only when the virus is detected in
your outgoing message (if you have checked the
Popup Alert Message box
upon detection
).
Below, we describe several differences in the ways Kaspersky AV Mail Checker
treats incoming and outgoing mail traffic:
11.2.1.
Incoming messages
Incoming messages are checked automatically right after these arrive to the
protected mailbox. If these messages are clean, you will receive them
immediately. However, if Kaspersky Anti-Virus finds an infected object, it will try
to disinfect it. If disinfection fails, the object will be deleted from the message. If
disinfection is successful, the message with the disinfected object will be
delivered to you immediately after treatment.
Note that the program will not notify you about disinfection / deletion of
an object from your e-mail message.
If all objects in this message are infected, you will receive this letter only if at
least one of these objects can be disinfected. Otherwise, the entire message will
be deleted.
Note that the program will not notify you about deletion of the message.
11.2.2.
Outgoing messages
Outgoing messages are checked for viruses right after the user press the
Send
button. If an outgoing message is infected the program attempts to cure it (if the
appropriate option is enabled).
If the
Popup Alert Message box upon detection
box is unchecked the
message will be processed in background mode, which does not require any
interaction on your part. Clean messages will be sent to the recipients and
infected messages will be subjected to treatment. After treatment, the messages
will be:
