Re: Mail Services

You might want to look at the results of the RSA S/MIME interoperability tests,
posted at http://www.rsasecurity.com/standards/smime/interop_center.html.

I don't see them listed there.

Hi,

Could someone confirm that SoftArcs FirsClass clients are S/MIME compatible
?

Hi Michael

I'm not completely sure what it really is you want to do, but I hope I'm
soon going to send automatically created (content and addresses from DB,
cert/keys from a .p12 file (according to PKCS 12)) S/MIME messages via a
normal SMTP server.
I'm using a full strength Java Cryptography Extension reimplementation
and an S/MIME package available from:

http://jcewww.iaik.tu-graz.ac.at

' hope this is helpful :)



Sure is. I went to take a look. It seems to be exactly what I'm looking

for

(up to possible licensing
issues).

Thanks

Cheers

I'm reflecting on an SMTP service sending S/MIME encoded mail. The

public

cert's
should be retreived from a directory service and the mail generated by

an

automat
(upon stimuli) rather than a desktop mail client (no manual

interaction,

that is).

Now, I was tempted to make use of the SFL libraries, and implementing

the

service
over OSS. However, I'm living and working in France... ...

So, I'm now reflecting on comercially offer's. What about the SIMS

(Sun)

Entrust/PKI
couple. Has anyone sucessfully tried it out for some similar

implementation

? Any
advice ?

Cheers
