Hi,
is there a setting to see information about the cert that is actually
used to encrypt to a message?
Background:
Domain
example.com uses user specific certs. If a user sends a signed
mail, ciphermail stores the cert as expected.
Sending S/MIME encrypted mails to a user at
example.com depends if there
is a the stored cert.
Now we like to set up domain-domain-encryption.
example.com send a cert for the domain.
I created a domain in ciphermail and enabled the domain cert they send.
Now mails to every user at
example.com can be send encrypted - with the
domain cert.
Users at
example.com complain that they cannot decrypt the mail.
Is there any precedence of user cert to domain cert in ciphermail?
Information what cert ciphermail actually used to encrypt the message is
needed.
Outgoing email will be S/MIME encrypted with all valid certificates for
the user. If a domain certificate has been setup for the recipient and
the certificate is valid, the email will be encrypted with the domain
certificate. If the user also has a personal certificate (i.e., issued
for his/her email address), then the email will *also* be encrypted with
the user certificate (i.e., the email will be encrypted with the domain
certificate *and* the personal certificate).
The gateway dynamically finds the certificates for a recipient (i.e., it
will check the domain and check if there is a personal certificate). If
you want to see which certificates are available for a recipient, you
need to add this recipient first. The click on the details for the
recipient (click on the email address). On the "Edit user: .." page,
click S/MIME and then from the pull down menu, select "encryption
certificates". You should now get an overview of all the S/MIME
certificates for the recipient.
Certificates are colored depending on whether the certificate is valid,
auto selected, inherited etc.
Green means the certificate is valid and auto selected (only if the
email address matches). Yellow means it's inherited (from the domain).
See the following page for more information

What is important to know is that a certificate will only be used if the
certificate is trusted.
