MOSS is designed to overcome the limitations of PEM by
handling MIME messages and being more liberal in the
hierarchy requirements. But MOSS has so many implementation
options that it is possible for two independent developers
to come up with two MOSS mailers that will actually "talk"
to each other. MOSS can be thought of as a framework rather
than a specification, and considerable work in
implementation profiling has yet to be done.
Something is wrong with the wording of the paragraph above. I expected it to
say "impossible for two independent". Where is this S/MIME FAQ? ...Jeff
