Signing outgoing e-mails with S/MIME

 

info_32 Note:

By activating this option, "SMTP server" is the only available option in "Outgoing Mail Server Options" in the profile settings.

 

To sign your outgoing e-mails with S/MIME (Secure / Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions), check the corresponding box in the "Sender Information" in the profile settings.

A step-by-step tutorial for activating this option you can find here:           Tutorial: Signing outgoing Email with S/MIME

S/MIME is a standard for encrypting and signing e-mails, a sort of digital signature. It assures your recipients that the received e-mails in fact are yours.

Further Information concerning S/MIME you can find here:

Microsoft - Information on S/MIME

 

info_32 Note:

Consider, that at least one certificate has to be installed on your computer to use this option. Otherwise you are advised that no certificate is installed on your computer.

In Windows, you find an overview of your certificates by entering "certmgr" in the search bar  in the start menu and pressing Enter.

To install a certificate on your computer, you first have to download it from your provider. For further help on this topic, contact your e-mail provider or your administrator.
