Hi, Does anybody have any idea what's going on with S/MIME and Netscape mailer? I need to excnange secure e-mail with people who use S/MIME. They use Netscape Mail. I use TB! 1.46d, WinNT4 SP6a and Win2000 Pro SP1 (another PC). So far I tried to do that with two persons. I have the similar problem which was described earlier in TBBETA list by Daniel Straessle: Subject: S/MIME bug in 1.46d, Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2000 01:27:34 -0700, and later: Subject: bug report: S/MIME, Date: Fri, 06 Oct 2000 06:47:52 -0700. Well, there is a difference though. In case of one person, I can exchange encrypted mail with the person with no problem. However, if I try to sign my e-mail, the recipient receives "Invalid Signature" with following bug message: "Warning! In the time since the sender sent you this message and you received it, the message appears to have been altered." The RFC-822 header of the mail from that person has the following info: X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; U) With another person, I have the same problem PLUS the problem with encrypted message, like described in the last Daniel's report: >2) If you send a S/MIME _encrypted_ mail to a Netscape Mail user, he >receives "Invalid Encryption" with following bug message: > >"This message cannot be decrypted. The data cannot be decrypted >because it was encrypted using an algorithm or key size which is not >allowed by this configuration." (also if you use a 128bit enabled >Netscape) The RFC-822 header of the mail from that person has the following info: X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7C-SGI [en] (X11; I; IRIX 6.5 IP32) In fact, I'm not sure it is Netscape e-mail client... This issue is fairly important for me. Win2K machine is the one I maintain at the company I work for, and I don't want to setup one more mailer program (or even worse, abandon TB! in favor of OE), but that's what I will have to do if these S/MIME issues will not be resolved in foreseeable future. There is another issue. If I sent the encrypted mail to someone, I can't read the copy in "Sent" folder. TB! tells me that "You do not have a certificate containing a private key to decrypt this message. This message can be decrypted by one of the following recipients:", and lists the recipient whom this message was sent to. This is correct but stupid, since I'm the one who wrote it. Am I missing something about S/MIME usage here? Again, I use TB! 1.46d under WinNT4 SP6a and Win2000 Pro SP1 on another PC. Please help!!!
