What are exactly the requirements for those that provide a mail user agent? Does “that processes S/MIME certificates” applies only to the email service provider or to both types of certificate consumers? What implies to “process S/MIME”… It should be maybe agreed that the certificate consumers must actively use S/MIME to sign/encrypt email, as a passive processing of the S/MIME parts not performing any action is not enough</div></blockquote><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Best,</div><div class="">Pedro</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""></div></body></html>
