Hi Thomas,
On 11 August 2000 at 23:20:23 GMT +0800 (which was 16:20 where I
live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote and made these points on the subject
of "S/MIME Import key bug?":

Possibly :-).

Decrypt the key? I don't understand what you are asking.
Allow me to recap for a moment: The point of discussion is that I had
Fred's certificate (and therefore his key) in my address book. I used
that key to send Fred an encrypted message. The message was also
encrypted to my own key (as one does, to ensure it can be read back
later). Fred was unable to decrypt that message and speculated as to
whether he would need my key to be able to read it. I thought not.
