      Hello Readers,

      Sinds i found out that Vivaldi has the roots in Opera, i started using it for 2 months or so.
      The email workt fine with my AVAST shield, but staring from march 29, is wont send or recieve emails.

      Found out that if i switch-off AVAST MAIL SHIELD protection, it works, but i dont think that is the right way.

      I tried some EXEPTIONS and/or APP allowed/block settings, but it doesnt help.

      Any idea what is going on?? what changed? and more importand, How to FIX it 🙂

      Friendly regards,
      a Dutch guy

        @sterretje welcome to the forum!

        Avast is coming up here regularly because it's blocking Vivaldi, creating all sorts of issues. There is nothing Vivaldi can do about it - if your anti-virus solution decides to block Vivaldi, it will do so. You will need to whitelist Vivaldi or (as I do) just rely on windows defender, which is good enough to protect you and causes 0 issues

        Usually on Win11 running Vivaldi Snapshot builds. Opinionated about working efficiently with email. Folders are evil | Mail workflow: receive, read, reply, mark as read, done.

          Thanx for the fast response!

          Ok, i will try to get some more info from AVAST how they are going to deal with this problem.

          I like (trust) Vivaldi to much to switch back to something "less"

          If i get some usefull info, i will post it here.
          Have a nice day.

            @WildEnte I suggested an Avast user to re-install Vivaldi as standalone and it worked.
            So pretty much avast mess with vivaldi when installed for all users.
