Problem using certificate for mail encryption

Hi,This is the situation, i have two users registred on two different servers with internet certificate merged in their IDs.

When I try to send crypted mail from one user to the other I have the message saying that the recipient dose not have a valid internet certificate or the internet certificate can not be found.

I tried to add the recipient in the local adress book with it’s certificate … but I have the same problem

Any help would be appreciated .

Subject: SOLUTION :Problem using certificate for mail encryption

Hi,I found the solution of my problem .

What i have done is adding the recipient directly in the sender address book and i imported to this new contact his certificate.

What must be done is the following :

  • the recipient must send a signed mail to the sender

  • the sender have to accept the cross certification and add the recipient to his address book (the advanced option include x.509 certificate must be selected )

  • now the sender can encrypt mail with the public key of the recipient

The diffrence between what i had done first and this can be seen in the document properties of the contact and not in the contact properties.

that’s all
