It depends on the CA in question, more so on the number of the attributes that are included, and of course on the set of users. ;-) So far I assure you I've no concern for pitchforks. ;-) Regards, Uri P.S. Why do you think validating, e.g., three email addresses is any more difficult than one?

You do not "revoke" a subset of attributes aka SAN emails. When any of the certified attributes changes (i.e., is certification no longer valid), the certificate is revoked and (possibly) re-issued. The process is no different than with any other set of attributes, several of which may be owned/

confirmed, i've seen dozens on one cert - far more preferable to do that and have such numbers than a single wildcard cert (which has issues on all sorts of platforms for various purposes). alan On 26 April 2017 at 18:24, Blumenthal, Uri - 0553 - MITLL wrote: > > It’s been my understanding t

A naïve question. A certificate that contains SAN attribute(s) – is there a limit on how many, say, RFC822 SAN attributes can a valid certificate have? It’s been my understanding that a cert can contain as many SAN attributes as needed, but it appears that Apple believes it has to be only on
