Stupid or what? ;-)
My first thought is that OutLook may have stored the encrypted mail in
the Sent Items folder. Meaning it's encrypted using the recipient's
public key, meaning only the recipient can read them.
No - that's not it. I thought of that and so sent myself the email. As
such it's encrypted with my private key + my public key (i.e. I am Bob
and Alice) - so that can't be it. It's as though it has encrypting
rights but not decrypting rights. However, I've checked the extendedkey
options and that's not the case - they're not even mentioned - it's a
cert that can do S/MIME - that's it. Thunderbird is 100% happy, Outlook
is happy enough sending with it - just not reading. I also made sure my
public key was associated with a Contacts entry for myself (that's how
Outlook tracks public keys) - so it should have all it needs to do the job.
