If there is, the answer to that question would come from the Thunderbird experts, who don't participate in this crypto list. Thunderbird will let you (and each person create a mailing list in your address book. If you send an email to a list in your address book, then it will actually send the message to all the email addresses in that list, all of which are actually in your address book. This works quite well with SMIME. Of course, every user has his own copy of the list that way, and it becomes difficult to centrally administer the list. Another alternative is to send the email to all the recipients explicitly, and have everyone use reply-all. But that also has its limitations. > Other solution would be to purchase cert for l...@example.com and > have every person installed this cert in their thunderbird/outlook. > I have already tested that solution and for some reason one person > can read mail sent by other. I assume you mean "... can NOT read mail ...". Did you have all the persons who will share that certificate also install the private key that goes with it? > Thanks for help/direction. -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
