Well, that didn't solve the problem. His machine still pops up that dialog.
I looked in my Keychain Access app on my development machine, and I see that the Developer ID Installer certificate says "This certificate was signed by an unknown authority." I removed that, rebooted, and re-imported it from my Mountain Lion machine, but it still says that. Could this be the problem? Do I need to sign the installers from my Mountain Lion machine, instead of my development Snow Leopard machine? Or is this a problem on HIS end???

Since I do my development on a Snow Leopard machine using Xcode 3.2.x, I had exported my Developer and Installer certificates and imported them on my Snow Leopard machine. I think I need the "intermediate" certificate mentioned in the online docs in order to have productsign properly embed it so that users' machines don't have to already have that on their machines. That should allow the installers to run on machines that haven't installed that certificate already, right?

The .pkg file is in a .zip file (so that I can label it by date and version, for internal testing, and also to prevent the Windows server at our main facility from messing with the file in any way). I don't see how the server could affect the .pkg file when it's contained in a .zip file, though.
