Bitdefender is conflicting with Windows Extended Protection (WEP) used by Microsoft Exchange.
Symptoms: Credential prompt error -- a requester continually prompts for my email password and in never satisfied.
The email server supplier says that Bitdefender terminates my HTTPS traffic and establishes a new SSL/TLS session.
Workaround: Disabling Bitdefender Encrypted web scan solves the problem.
Adding an exception for the mail server address in Bitdefender's Manage exceptions/Online Threat Prevention doesn't seem to solve the problem unless Encrypted web scan is disabled.
Anyone have advice on how to tell Bitdefender not to interfere in this case?
