Title: S/MIME (PKCS #7) Support (e-mail authentication, encryption & signing)
Post by: vanbroup on October 30, 2007, 05:40:18 AM
Hi all,

I really like Roundcube, and I would like to implement it in our environment (with a lot of thousands accounts). We would like to see Roundcube supporting S/MIME e-mail authentication, encryption & signing with official CA certificates.

S/MIME provides the following cryptographic security services for electronic messaging applications: authentication, message integrity and non-repudiation of origin (using digital signatures) and privacy and data security (using encryption). S/MIME specifies the application/pkcs7-mime (smime-type "enveloped-data") type for data enveloping (encrypting): the whole (prepared) MIME entity to be enveloped is encrypted and packed into an object which subsequently is inserted into an application/pkcs7-mime MIME entity.

S/MIME functionality is built into the vast majority of modern e-mail software and interoperates between them.

PHP is supporting S/MIME (PKCS #7) since PHP 4 >= 4.0.6, PHP 5

For more info about S/MIME see Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S/MIME)

Regards,

Paul

I second this feature request, with a priority significantly higher than PGP encryption.

while I would prefer PGP, I could live with S/MIME too.
But some sort of encryption should be added!

Is S/MIME support on the roadmap for Roundcube at the moment?
