-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 S/MIME (Digital ID) support in mozilla?
Hello all. I'm trying to move from WIN9x to Linux and I'm having a bit of a problem with my S/MIME email setup. I installed RedHat Linux with all the defaults. The first thing I did was to setup Netscape Messenger Version 4.76 with my work (email) account information, I imported my digital ID with no problem and I could send and receive (signed and encrypted) email with no problem. The problem comes in when I wanted to add my personal (email) account, Messenger didnot support this (multiple in/out accounts with a different digital ID). Then I Found out (by exploring) that Mozilla can manage multiple accounts the way that I wanted. I was able to import my S/MIME digital IDs (work and personal) in to the certificate store of mozilla, and created the diffent options for both my accounts. But I was unable to find the the options for "signing" and "encryption". How can I send signed (or encrypted) S/MIME emails without these buttons (or the "padlock icon")? I mean I RTFM, went to the help section, went to the mozilla.org site and, it clearly states that Mozilla supports S/MIME. ::START QUOTE - From help section::: Sending Signed and Encrypted Messages In a Composition window, click the padlock icon. The Security Info window displays information about whether you can encrypt or digitally sign this message. Follow the instructions for getting a recipient's certificate or checking the option to send yours. ::END QUOTE:: What I need help on: 1. Where are the "signing" and "encryption" S/MIME buttons (or the "padlock icon") of the mail mozilla composer window?. 2. How can I make it work? 3. Do need to download something? What I don't need: People telling me to forget S/MIME and use PGP. Don't get me wrong, I love PGP but both accounts have emails already encrypted to S/MIME., and it is VERY hard to get people to use PGP after they have been using S/MIME. Thank you in advanced for your help and support.
