Play around with the various settings and see what happens; there are not all that many options. Some will be more secure than others but, for the time being, anything is probably better than no encryption. Just remember to keep a tick in "always encrypt to sender's certificate" just in case you ever want to read the messages you sent. In the Account properties, at the bottom of the Options page, there are tick-boxes... And you import/manage your own certificates at Account->Properties->General->Edit personal certificates. And in each address book entry, on the Certificates tab, there is a button to import that contact's certificate(s). > In the address book I can at each user import a > certificate, but which one?
