[KB2866] Add or remove the ESET Antispam toolbar from email clients (Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Live Mail) (15.x–16.x)

Issue

Solution

By default, the ESET Antispam toolbar will appear in Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail (version 2012 and earlier) when you install ESET Smart Security Premium, ESET Smart Security or ESET Internet Security.

This toolbar enables you to quickly designate messages as Spam or Not spam and categorize an email address as a Trusted address (Whitelist) or a Spam address (Blacklist).
