Hi Nagaraj,
Have you looked at the DOMSEC draft?
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-smime-domsec-08.txt
It allows for others to sign a message. It also specifies a domain/company
signature. A valid company signature means the message can be accepted
irrespective of whether there is an originator signature or not.

Hi,
Is it possible for a mail being sent by one person
be signed by a different person and still be treated
as a valid signature?
My problem is like this. Any mail that a client
receives signed by a particular person's certificate
should be considered valid by the client irrespective
of who the actual sender is.
Thanks.
