New version firewall problem

Hi

I'm running v4.0.424.0

I collect POP3 mail form two sources, my ISP (Zen) and my domain host (1and1) and filter mail through Mailwasher Pro

When I try to get mail from 1and1 I have to drop the ESS firewall, if I do not I get server time-out errors. Mailwasher reports 'Server time-out probably caused by a firewall'

Any help or advice appreciated

Had a similar problem using ESS 4.0.424 and Mailwasher Pro. Ran ESS in Learning Mode for a while, and ran all progs that use the Web. Also disabled ARP Poisoning attack detection as well as DNS Poisoning attack detection in
Setup>Personal firewall>IDS and advanced options.

Then switched firewall mode to Interactive and have had no further problems.

Hope this helps.

I also have 1and 1 as a domain host, but apart from the fact it has always been slow, I haven't had it time out using ESS, I wonder if Mailwasher might be the problem?

I'm using v4.0.424.0 as well.

Which might not be of much help except, it is working for some people.

I'm using 1&1 but with IMAP, haven't noticed attacks. Never used any third party applications though.

 

I tried the suggestions which seem to have worked for the moment. I have also turned ON ARP & DNS and everything seems to be OK.

Thanks
