On Tue, 10 Dec 2002 16:43:31 -0500 your time, you said: VBG> I understand PGP will help to prove my identity but then where do VBG> certificates come into play? Well first of all you'll need to publish your key to the keyserver. I just tried to check your pgp sig and got nothing. So your sig is of no use really if it can't be verified or I can't import your public key. VBG> as I need but will combining a PGP signed message along with a VBG> certificate be wise or redundant? The PGP v S/MIME digital certificate question really depends on your requirements and recipients. If you only expect to use PGP encryption to communicate with a few PGP enabled people then there probably would be no point with the S/MIME certificates. However, if you are expecting to be able to use encryption between you and M$ LookOut and LookOut Express users who aren't PGP enabled then you'll have a reason to use S/MIME certificates as you can use your digital certificate to send those users encrypted messages - - M$ clients are S/MIME compliant. So, to be able to encrypt mail to as many users as possible, use both, as both are being well used. But if you couldn't care tuppence about S/MIME users because you'll only be dealing with the PGP clan stick with PGP <g> - -- Sl�n, Simon @ theycallmesimon.co.uk ****************************************** PGP Key: http://pgp.theycallmesimon.co.uk/ Faffing about with TB! v1.62 on W2K SP3 #1157.
