If your internal users are using the same e-mail system then e-mails between them most likely won't even hit the ciphermail gateway to even perform any type of encryption. > 2.

S/MIME for sure will require some basic knowledge of using the PC in order to install certs on their PCs. I haven't used PGP but I understand that it functions very similar to S/MIME. In my experience using ciphermail on customer installation is as follows: If there are external users that you internal customer will be e-mailing on a regular basis and those e-mail must be encrypted, you would set those external users in ciphermail beforehand with mandatory encryption. I would recommend PDF encryption with a static password that you give those external users. If you want to go the route of S/MIME or PGP you will have to get involved with installing/configuring certs on those users PCs if we are talking about users with little or no tech experience. I've done it before and it's a pain. Biggest issue I've ran into is the expectation for the external users to be able to encrypt back to my internal users. Ciphermail will handle that but the external user has to be able to remember to encrypt those e-mail using s/mime or PGP from their end using their e-mail client (outlook etc...). _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.djigzo.com https://lists.djigzo.com/lists/listinfo/users
