Detecting whether the recipient is using domain to domain encryption is
possible but a lot more work than using a setting and slower since
instead of just retrieving the list of all certs, a check should be done
to see whether the cert was a domain cert or not. It's doable but if I
have to choose between an extra advanced setting or checking for domain
certs etc. I prefer the extra setting.

Yesterday there was a question about syncing with LDAP and getting a
list of users that are using S/MIME encryption so I guess you are not
the only one that likes that feature so I guess it's better to allow the
admin to decide whether to automatically add a user or not.

I moved some settings (the mobile settings) to a specialized page. This
Perhaps I can move certain properties to a specialized page?

Kind regards,
