On Windows 11 Pro (latest updates) desktop, I use Thunderbird (latest update) to send/receive email. Usually, Norton 360 (latest update) VPN must be turned off to received emails. I say "usually," because sometimes it works with VPN on. Is there a way to receive emails without needing to usually turn off VPN? What I have been trying hasn't worked. Thanks, if you can help.

Use Split Tunnelling to exclude TB from VPN monitoring:

On Norton 360 / Privacy / Secure VPN / Open / Settings, there is no "slider to Enable VPN Split Tunneling," despite what is claimed on https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/v131881814 (last modified 12/11/2024). Thanks, however, for your reply, sfhowes.
