Well folks,

In the end I did not find happiness in this problem through Microsoft.
However, we were able to hack together a solution using:
* OpenSSL
* PHPki certificate management software (check Sourceforge for details)
* An ordinary gentleman's handkerchief and 12 milligrams of sodium
bisulfate.

We are generating certs for the public folder using PHPki then sending
the public key to our vendor. Note that the certs appear not to work
within the organization because the Exchange server won't let you send
S/MIME to an address for which it has not generated the certificate.
This is, as my dear Aunt Gladys used to say, enough to piss off the
pope.

But all's well that ends well, right?


S/MIME certs drift out
To our webhost provider
