northchurch37 0 Posted January 31, 2004 Can I use my VeriSign ID for Spamcop webmail? It works well when sending via Outlook Express. I exported the ID to a floppy and tried an upload to Spamcop - not sure how to upload this info. other than via a PC7 file. Error message received when trying to send digitally-signed email -- passphrase not valid. I double-checked the passphrase when exporting my ID to a floppy which I used to try uploading personal private key. If anyone has successfully enabled S/MIME, could you please let me know. Thanks, David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, David The problem is that the upload isn't looking for that kind of file. It wants a PEM file, which is an ASCII file. The only way I know to convert your certificate to PEM format is to use the OpenSSL tools. So, right now, this isn't very convenient. If you can get the PEM file, the S/MIME does work.

Here's the steps I used on my windows PC: * Go to http://www.Thawte.com with IE and get a new outlook certificate * Export the certificate out of IE * Make sure you have cygwin installed (http://www.cygwin.com/) * Download openssl via cygwin * Run this command openssl pkcs12 -in your-exported-filename -out filename-to-create * Go to the webmail interface of spamcop and import the file created above That's it.

StevenUnderwood 0 Posted October 14, 2004 So you only need to access 1 external site and install/configure 2 other pieces of software (cygwin and openssl) to get this working. And we have problems getting people to post a tracking URL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
