Hi,

A new Djigzo Gateway release candidate (2.1.1) is available.

http://www.djigzo.com/beta.html

Release notes:

Improvements

* If a certificate was available for a recipient, a user object was
  always created for that recipient. The user is no longer added by
  default.

What is the reasoning behind this one? I found it handsome to which
addresses where handled by S/MIME and which not by consulting the user
list.

My thinking was that you only need to add a user when you need to
override an inherited setting. Adding an external user when a
certificate is available for the user resulted in a lot of pointless
users when using domain to domain encryption since a certificate is
available for every sender.

I can however see your point in that it helps you to see for which
external users a certificate is available. The old behavior can be
reenabled by replacing

RecipientHasCertificates=matchOnError=false,false

with

RecipientHasCertificates=matchOnError=false,true

but this requires you to change the config.xml file. I guess you want it
to be configurable from the GUI? ;)

It isn't that important to clutter the GUI with just another setting i
guess, it just was "handsome" to quickly alter problematic receivers
because the user already exists. Would it be possible to not auto create
users for domains the domain-to-domain encryption is configured or
something like "auto-create-user-strict-mode" so only users are auto
created when exactly matching certificates are involved?

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.

In this case the extra setting is the better way to go of course.

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.

It isn't that important to clutter the GUI with just another setting..

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

Maybe it's time to group the S/MIME special settings like "strict-mode", "skip-invites" and the like on one page...

Regards

Andreas
