Hi Stuart and list,

On Monday, September 12, 2005 at 15:46:22 GMT -0500 (which was 22:46
where I live) Stuart Cuddy wrote (at least in parts) and made these
valuable points on the subject of "GMail certificate not being 'sent'
or something":

Hmm - dunno exactly, but some time ago same thing happened to me.
After an update I lost all Thawte Root Certificates from my adressbook
Trusted Roots. Getting rid of my old TB! installation and installing
anew from last official version brought them all back again.

With S/MIME certificates there is a "certification path" which is
followed by TB! when verifying the actual certificate. If one
(intermediate or root) certificate is missing in the chain, TB! will
complain (and with TLS not accept the connection). Usually the "root"
certificates are supplied by Ritlabs and installed when you install
TB! on your machine.

Why they get lost some times? I have no clue at all.
