Hi all, after writing in the German list and getting no reply I decided to post this issue also here... Maybe I have more luck...
I'm looking forward to optimize my S/MIME and PGP configuration. At the moment I use S/MIME (as you also see in this mail) only for signing every outgoing mail. I personally like S/MIME for signing better than PGP because S/MIME signatures are shown as valid or invalid at once in TB. PGP signatures are shown with a question mark and you first have to start the external program to verify the signature. Encryption with S/MIME and PGP also works but I do not use it very often because I think it's unpractical. I really don't like it that every incoming and outgoing encrypted mail is stored encrypted in the database. TB also wants the mantra every time I try to read the mail. Plus the search engine does not find content in the encrypted mails (which is absolutly clear for me because these mails are stored encrypted and I have to type in the mantra every time I try to read the content). So here comes the first question: Is it possible to store these mails plain in the database? At least I'm using OTFE encryption and I think this is enough security for my local workstation. The issue described above is leading us to my second question: Using S/MIME for encryption I cannot add or remove recipients which can decode the mail like when using PGP for encryption. So I cannot add myself and I have the problem that I cannot decode mails I sent using S/MIME for encryption. How can I add myself so that I can decode mails lying in my sent mail folder? By the way: Is this the right group for these kind of issues or should I better address this to the beta group?
