Re: Vista deletes incoming messages



Simply because it does that. It has a bad hair day for some reason and makes a mess of everything. The way anyone's email scanner must work, this sort of thing is inevitable regardless of Norton, McAfee, AVG, Avast, Panda, or whoever. Email scanners, every last one of them, WILL cause trouble and Norton is by far the biggest offender in the world of Windows Mail. Email scanning is entirely redundant, it does nothing but create problems where none otherwise exist (you have first hand evidence of this), and a PC is fully protected without it, provided the resident file system scanner part of your favorite A/V application is kept up to date.

But why would Norton just all of a sudden decide to scan or delete just
email from one source? Nothing has changed on my computer for a year and
then all of a sudden it begins to eliminate just emails from one sender.
Plus, even if I have that email forwarded from another computer it still
grabs it and deletes it. It is the strangest thing I have ever seen.
