Save the public key in a textual file, preferred extended '.pem'. if you do use the 'internal' S/MIME implementation open the address book entry for your server, go to 'Certificates' tab and 'Import' one ... the text file you've saved the public key to. When using 'MS-Crypot API' for S/MIME you'll have to import the .pem-file in e.g. Internet Explorer settings / Content / Certificates into 'Trusted Root certification Authorities' >> The Bat! uses 'CRAM-MD5' not 'DIGEST-MD5'.

I'll recompile the libraries to provide CRAM-MD5. Do so ... if done you'll not even need to tell The Bat! using CRAM-MD5, it will do automatically, as it chooses the most secure authentication method available. So if your server announces CRAM-MD% capabilities in it's EHLO-greeting The Bat! will automatically choose it. The 'Require' is only to make sure that if the server drops CRAM-MD5 capabilities for any reason (e.g. ISP renews the server and forgets to compile CRAM-MD5 into it) it will not try to send your password in plain text. So .. as long as this is _your_ server there's no real need to enable the 'Require ..' unless you expect somebody might 'hijack' your server and you'll be sure never giving out the plain text password (which should be your smallest problem if the server is hacked *GGG*) HTH Pit.

A signature delimiter is '-- ' followed by <Enter> (<dash><dash><space><enter>), all on one line, at the very beginning and the only content of that line. The 'space' _is_ important.
