and outgoing email messages.
Norton AntiVirus lets you manually configure your
POP3 and SMTP email ports for email protection.
Typically, your Internet service provider (ISP) provides
you the port numbers for your email program. If the
SMTP and POP3 port numbers for your email program
are different from the default port numbers, you must
configure Norton AntiVirus.
To ensure email protection, Symantec recommends
that you check the POP3 and SMTP port numbers for
your email program. If they are not the default ports,
add them to the ProtectedPorts window. To configure
the Protected Ports Settings option, go to the Norton
AntiVirus main window, and then click Settings >
Network > Message Protection > Protected Port
Settings > Configure.
If you do not want Norton AntiVirus to protect a port,
you can remove the port from the Protected Ports
window.

You cannot remove the default SMTP port 25 and POP3
port 110. Norton AntiVirus automatically protects
these default ports.
Adding POP3 and SMTP ports to Protected Ports
Norton AntiVirus supports all email programs that use
POP3 and SMTP communication protocols with default
ports. However, if your email program is not configured
with the default ports, you can manually configure
your POP3 and SMTP email ports.
To ensure email protection, the POP3 and SMTP port
numbers must be protected. If the POP3 and SMTP port
numbers are not the default ports, Symantec
recommends that you add the port numbers to the
Protected Ports window.
