After purchase, the ESET Mail Security installer can be downloaded from ESET’s website as an .msi package. Once you
launch the installer, the installation wizard will guide you through the basic setup. There are two types of installation
available with different levels of setup details:
1.
Typical
Installation
2.
Custom
Installation
2.1 Typical Installation
Typical installation provides configuration options appropriate for most users. The settings provide excellent security
coupled with ease of use and high system performance. Typical installation is the default option and is recommended
if you do not have the particular requirements for specific settings.
After selecting the installation mode and clicking Next, you will be prompted to enter your username and password
for automatic updates of the program. This plays a significant role in providing constant protection of your system.
Enter your Username and Password, i.e., the authentication data you received after the purchase or registration of
the product, into the corresponding fields. If you do not currently have your username and password available,
authentication data can be inserted at any time, directly from the program.
