Hello Wheelsrsc
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
Just to let you kinow that Emails aren't scanned by Webroot, but as soon as you try to run a malicious attachment WSA would block the execution and protect your PC. Also if you would click on a link in an email the URL will be scanned against the cloud database.
You need to keep in mind that WSA works a bit different than other antivirus solutions; instead of scanning everything all the time and wasting hardware resources, Webroot tries to intelligently protect you PC against threats.
Also if you Google this there is alot of information there available.
Hope this helps?
