Trinity, you have multiple mail problems.
In addition to the settings mentioned by t-4-2, do the following.
Your AVG antivirus was probably installed with its default install option.
If so, uninstall it, then reinstall, but select 'custom' install, which then
allows you to unselect installing its troublesome email scanning module.
