Michael:
The really sad fact is that e.g. Mozilla's S/MIME support was much better in
Netscape Communicator in 1998. Back then you could simply retrieve the e-mail
cert via LDAP. Anyone remember signed attribute 'userSMIMECertificate' which
the user could create and send himself?
When the S/MIME specifications were developed, LDAP was expected to be the main
way that certificates get distributed. That part just never happened....
