Read this:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nav.nsf/d4578f66d8f00a0188256d4e0...aa94/4b
especially the section "Is my computer still protected against viruses if I disable Email Scanning?"

Bob; My situation is very similar except i have macafee. I pulled up the scan
and was going to eliminated the outgoing but it doesn't separated the two
(outgoing and incoming) I can see letting the outgoing mail side without the
protection, but not the incoming. Also i sent one picture to someone and they
got 20 all of which were undistiguishale or with computer language. So i sent
another but this time clicked on the sending maessage and it brought up a
window that had a graph on it and showing "sending messages 1-20 and yes,
i've had the computer since april and now the problems...........Please
advise ...........oldguy61
