    Ruben,

    At first sight, it looks like a POP3 configuration issue. Do you have any info (screen shots will do as well) in this regard? What email client is in use? Has the automatic update option as for databases been enabled?

    regards.

    Ruben,
    No problem - it's almost 11:30 PM over in Germany. I do wish the lady happy dreams ;)

    regards.

    Hey Paul

    we checked - she is behind a linux firewall - no opaserv comes in, but when connecting directly, she uses a bankprogramm that will not work with the linux firewall, she automatically gets the infection warning - no mailcheck.

    Set her up with kerio 2.15 and special rules - we'll see what happens
