Hi All,

I have been using PGP for mail encryption for a long time, but it is beginning to give me trouble by causing Mail to not want to send messages.

So I started looking for alternatives and found to my amazement that Mail has been able to encrypt mails, apparently since OS10.3. That's something Apple haven't exactly been shouting from the rooftops.

Anyway, I have jumped through all the hoops described in the Mail help system under "Keeping messages secure": I have a certificate for the sender and have imported a certificate for the addressee, and the signing side of things is working fine, but the padlock is permanently greyed out as shown below (the check mark in the "cog wheel" shows that signing is active).

Can anyone help, please?

Cheers,
Ole
