Hi,
A small request i've already made a couple of time... just a hope that it
could reach the right people at Ritlabs :)
Could it be possible to manualy select a S/Mime certificate to sign an eMail ?
In Belgium, we use an eID : the electronic identity card, with this card we can
use an officially certified certificate to sign our documents like emails...
the problem with TheBat! is that this certificate does not contain any email
address : the purpose is not to certify the email address, but the identity
(name) like a real signature, wichever email address we use... and TheBat!
when i request to sign an email try to automatically find a certificate with my
email address... of course it does not work : TheBat! does not find the right
certificate as it does not contain my EMail address, and thus TheBat! refuse to
sign the message... if only it could be possible to manually select a
certificate...
Of course, i *must* use the MS Crypto API and not the internal implementation,
to be able to use the external eID reader configured for the MS Api...
From my point of view it should not be too difficult to allow that, and would
be a really major improvement in usability of TheBat! in professional
environnement (eID signature is the only one recognized by law to certify an
email in Belgium, thus pgp or other certificates are not an option).
