Barkupatree2002 1 Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 I received what to my eye is a suspicious email. It is in a list of emails in my inbox. My email client is Windows LIve Mail 2011 version 15.4.3555.0308. I tried to scan the email by right clicking on the email, selecting '"ESET Smart Security" from the drop-down menu, and then selecting "Rescan messages" from another drop-down menu. I selected "all messages in the current folder" and "rescan already scanned messages." Subsequently there was no indication that a scan was occurring. Additionally I could not find any indication in the log files under "events" or "computer scan" that indicated that a scan of my emails had occurred. How do I know if scan of my email actually happened? I am using ESET Smart Security version 8.0.304.0. Thanks.

Solution Barkupatree2002 1 Posted August 10, 2015 Author Solution Posted August 10, 2015 The number of scanned emails should increase in the protection statistics. I tried your suggestion. Indeed the number of scanned emails indicated by the protection statistics increased after scanning my suspicious email. This is a simple and effective way to confirm that the email has been scanned. Thanks very much.
