For more information on this and other mail encryption settings, see the topic Editing the Configuration Settings document for Domino Web Access.

If SSL connection is required for either the client or both the client and server, Domino Web Access users cannot read or send encrypted messages when connected via HTTP. If the user is connected via HTTP, they must switch to HTTPS when accessing the encrypted message on the server. This switch occurs automatically when sending encrypted mail. The user will be prompted to switch when reading encryped mail.

Deployment differences between Notes and Domino Web Access

• Domino Web Access cannot read or send S/MIME encrypted mail.
• Recovery authority -- Domino Web Access does not support recovery authority unless it is already in the ID mailed to the user.
• Imported Notes IDs -- Notes IDs cannot be Smartcard enabled.
• Certificates -- Domino Web Access looks for certificates first in the Domino Directory and then in the contacts.
• Cross certificates -- Domino Web Access only looks for cross certificates in the Domino Directory. If you are using Domino Web Access, you must create any required cross certificates in the Domino Directory.
• Multiple domains -- If you are administering multiple domains, use Directory Assistance for an Extended Directory Catalog on the server. Do not use a Condensed Directory Catalog (CDC) on the server.
• Offline -- If you are using a directory catalog, you must enable it for encrypted mail.
