As I understand, the service will require mutual authentication and ask for your certificate. It can also ask for your certificate with specific characteristics.On Tue, 24 Aug 2004, Nelson Bolyard wrote:
Is it possible to use client certificates for authentication to smtps srver? Mozilla Thunderbird is supporting smtps, but I see no way to install client certificates and use them to authenticate...
Regards,
The word I've received is that the Thunderbird developers decided that all the UI for managing certs, keys, and the "master password" was just "too confusing" for former IE users, so they decided to leave it out.
:(
I guess that means if you want to use client certs, you have to use the mozilla suite (e.g. moz 1.7) instead of TBird.
I don't see any way to use client certs in Mozilla _mailer_. I want it to authenticate to the remote peer by presenting a certificate. All I can see I can do is trust the remote site by trusting it's certificate or the CA that signed it, but how can I present my client certificate to the other side?
Regards,
Then you can answer automatically or select the signing key you wish to use. This
would be just like a mod-SSL Apache service using SSL.
