Can't get AVG8 Free to scan second account

For the last three days, I have read all that I could understand on AVG-8 Free, and cannot find a reference to my dilima. I am using a BB connection, xp sp-3 with AVG-8 Free . I use Outlook Express, I have two email accounts, the first one is earthlink (set at default on ox ) it uses a pop3 server, that AVG-8 Free scans fine with no problems at all. The second one is a msn email account that uses a http server with a http server url that avg-8 will not scan. I set everything up automatically last week and noticed a few days ago that there were only 23 email scans according to the avg-8 log. so I sent emails to the two accounts I have and sure enough, the msn one did not register on the AVG counter for emails scanned.

I could find no mention of setting up another account using AVG-8. Not even sure if I can, there is not much at all out here regarding my particular problem. I am just trying to find out how to get my msn with a http server to work.

I went to AVG email scanner > tools > advanced settings > then servers and only had two options, pop3 or smpt there, then I went to proxy and was lost. I have no knowledge as to what to do from here.
I tried looking on all the AVG sites and came up empty handed.

I hope I have explained myself clearly enough. One more thing, I called msn support and was told they had no idea what I was talking about.

The POP3 and SMTP email protocols uses the ports 25 and 110.
An http email account uses port 80, this is the port internet browsers connect to for an unencrypted connection.
It appears AVG 8 will only do an email scan for port 25 and 110, and not port 80.

 

Thank You Mark, Now I finally have an answer. I wonder if AVG will even support two email accounts. If so I may look for another email account that uses pop-3 or smpt, or maybe I'll try a different antivirus email scanner that will support both of my accounts.

I really hate to give my msn email account though.

Perhaps someone else will chime in and opine.
