A popular vendor broke their implementation of S/MIME, that was fixed years

Well, your message signature doesn't seem valid to my mail program.


Again, your vendor being busted  does not mean that S/MIME is busted.


No, but it's a good indication that S/MIME isn't ready for prime time when the three different S/MIME packages available to me can't talk to each other.

I can name 4 popular ones that can interoperate with each other. So it looks ready to me.
