- Thread-topic: Unable to send encrypted email in Snow Leopars
I have an ORC ECA cert and am having zero success encrypting email to other users with 10.6.2. The problem manifests itself in two different ways in Mail with 10.6.2:
*** CAC users ***
The received signed message shows a yellow bar that says "Unable to verify message signature". I click on "Show Details" and get a message saying "Unable to verify message signature: Mail was unable to verify the authenticity of the S/MIME certificate provided by 'email@hidden'. Messages signed by this user may be coming from a different source. I then click "Show Certificate" and get an unchecked box next to "Messages from 'FRED.FOOBAR...' are valid if signed by 'FOOBAR.FRED.F.1234567890'". I check the box and click "OK". The yellow bar and warning don't go away. I repeat the above process and find that the check box is unchecked. Mail doesn't remember the setting! This happens with every CAC-based cert. When I send to CAC users, I get the option to sign messages but not encrypt them. I have verified that the certs are imported into my keychain and are vaild and trusted.
*** ECA users (e.g., VeriSign) ***
Mail accepts the certificate as valid; there's no yellow warning as with CAC users. I get the option to both sign and encrypt messages to users. But when I click "Send", I get a pop-up that says "Alert: An error occurred while trying to encrypt your messages. Verify that you have valid certificates in your keychain for all of the recipients." I also get this message when I try to send encrypted email to myself. I have verified that the certs are imported into my keychain and are valid and trusted.
I've tried deleting all the certs from my login keychain and reinstalling them. This didn't help.
Thanks,
Andreas
