Olav, I think that the reason this did not work for you is due to the fact that Thunderbird had my valid private S/MIME certificate in the security setting for Thunderbird. If I try to select the "encrypt this Message" in Options, Thunderbird indeed complains that I need to set up a certificate. But when I put the S/MIME certificate back in I can "force" the encryption as I said. I tested this to a friends email who has a valid Openpgp cert and the message came through and was decrypted by enigmail OpenPGP. I don't know what happened to the S/MIME encryption. Doing it that way did cause the server to time out twice before the message was sent, but otherwise there were no error messages. Bill
