Hello, i am the maintainer of S-nail and i responded to the question of the poster as archived at
https://sourceforge.net/p/s-nail/s-nail/message/35479133/ or http://www.mail-archive.com/s-nail-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00530.html It follows a copy of the answer: I don't think there is an issue on our side, S/MIME is tested via cc-test.sh in the distribution. I wouldn't exactly call the bug report detailed, your setup must be different from what the bug report states, i.e., more complete. Have you read the manual ("Signed and encrypted messages with S/MIME")? Compared to Heirloom mailx the S/MIME support has been actualized a little bit regarding the standard RFC 5751. E.g., if you replace the line Content-Type: application/pkcs7-mime; name="smime.p7m" with Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-mime; name="smime.p7m" then maybe that fixes the problem, though unlikely because other MUAs use this one exclusively for some time. More likely the culprit is the upgrade of the *smime-cipher*[1] from des3 (DES EDE3 CBC) to aes128 (AES-128 CBC). If i recall correctly Heirloom used 3des for the name, so if you have set the cipher to 3des then this could also be it. You now can also fine-tune the message digest by setting the *smime-sign-message-digest*[2] option, i.e., more backward compatible: set mime-cipher=des3 mime-sign-message-digest=MD5 More forward compatible set mime-cipher=aes256 mime-sign-message-digest=sha512 [1] https://www.sdaoden.eu/code-nail.html#429 [2] https://www.sdaoden.eu/code-nail.html#_437 Ciao! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1640190 Title: S/MIME encryption broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/s-nail/+bug/1640190/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
