  When I use Email I get the Error Message: Subject Attribute Email has
no
  known NID, skipped

 I think that is a bug...

Good to know that I don't have to search for the error on my side any
longer.


  When I use emailAddress the certificate request is for the subject
  C=DE, ST=Nordrheinwestfalen, L=Oberhausen, O=ABCGmbH, OU=Internet,
  CN=User/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  (/emailAddress is considered part of the CN)
 
 It isn't part of the CN, that's just how its displayed: read the FAQ.

http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html  doesn't contain the string email
and only one instance of CN, which covers a different topic.
http://www.openssl.org/support/faq.html#USER13 also covers a different
topic.

However since you told me that it's  just an odd display, I generated a
certificate from that request and it contained the correct DN.

Case closed :-)

Thank you,
Christian

Email has been deleted as a short name in objects.txt between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7,
I'll checkthe logs to see the reason.

#13 is actually the right topic. That odd email display is a symptom of the
old behaviour. Though it could be clearer.

-nameopt oneline or -nameopt multiline produces a more sensible output.

 This should be correct, because objects.h define

Subject Attribute Email has no known NID, skipped

Hi,

Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong?
