I am using outlook 2003 with exchange 2003.
I receive s/mime message that are sent to a distribution list.
The problem is though that when i receive the email it has the
smime.p7m attachment and it is not decrypted, I have imported the cert
as that is used to encrypt these messages into outlook, my local
windows xp profile and my AD account.
I have added the sender to my address book and added the cert.. and
still nothing..
Something doesn't see correct here. The p7m cert you get is the public key of the sender; i.e., the digital signature, that will allow you to encrypt messages to him (her). It's not used to decrypt the messasge. No one should be able to send you an encrypted message unless you've already given that person your public key and he used that to encrypt, unless he's encrypting using some other public key he's received and posting the encrypted message to the list. In that case, if the person whose key he used is also on the list, only that one person will be able to decrypt the message and make sense out of it.
