Attach whole certificate chain when signing e-mails using S/MIME

Hello,
I'd like to sign e-mails using S/MIME and the iOS mail app.
Therefore I installed the certificate containing my private key (issued by certum.eu) as a profile and activated S/MIME in the mail account settings (iOS settings). The certificate is selected there properly and the option to sign e-mails automatically has been enabled.
When I send e-mails now, they get signed - but not correctly: some e-mail clients say the signature was invalid.
When I send and sign e-mails with Outlook for Windows using the same certificate all the e-mail clients recognize the signature as valid.
The problem seems to be that the iOS mail app does not attach the whole certificate chain to the signature. Some e-mail client thus cannot validate it. (Windows for example is enrolled with certum's root CA by default but without the required intermediate certificates.)
The certificate I imported into iOS DOES contain all intermediate certificates (and they are listed in iOS when I retrieve the certificate's details there) and iOS says the certificate is 'trustworthy'. So all information needed should be available on the device.
How can I make the mail app behave like Outlook? Thank you very much in advance.
Best wishes

Hey,
I do not understand the current approach by BlackBerry.
The new BlackBerry Z10 is an amazing device, but there are still some basic problems I do not understand.
Why do I need to pay for BES to use S/MIME support only? Other systems like iOS or Android can deal with those certificates without any problems and on non server based architectures.
Are there any plans on an easier and less expensive solutions to use encrypted email?
Thanks!

Error code when signing in to use face time; 3121-2138-7457 any ideas to the problem?

I recieve and error code when signing in to use facetime (3121-2138-7457) any information regarding how to correct this error code would be appreciated?

There is no official public documentation of that alert as far as I know.
If you're trying to sign in to FaceTime, try to sign in to iMessage in the Messages application, or vice versa.
Otherwise, do as the alert directs. According to reports, you won't be charged for the support call if you select "Apple ID"—not the hardware model—as the product you're asking about, and cite the "customer code" in the alert as the "validation code" when you speak to the Apple representative.

HT201269 Attachment button not appearing when writing e-mails

Since I upgraded my iphone to ios7, I am unable to find the attachment button to attach any pictures or PDF documents. Can anyone help me out on this?

Assuming that you were using the default Mail.app, it never had a way to attach PDF documents.
To attach a picture from your Camera Roll, long-press in the body of the email, then press the right-arrow that appears.

Problem when "Checking for Mail" using IMAP and POP

Hello,
I have an iPhone 3G running 2.0.1 and created 3 mail accounts (1 Gmail using IMAP, and 2 using POP).
When I first set up the phone 2 days ago the installer copied the settings from my Mac and emails on my iPhone showed up correctly.
Since yesterday something is screwed up because when I try to fetch new email I only see "Checking for Mail" at the bottom of the screen but nothing happens and new emails don't show up.
Any idea how to fix this problem?
Thanks!

FYI you don't actually have to completely reboot the phone. From inside your email program, push and hold the HOME button for 7 or 8 seconds until it exits email and dumps you back at your home screen. That causes a hard-quit of the email program and will reset it. You should begin getting email again immediately after.
Here's hoping Apple fixes that anomaly on their next release...

I cannot print from firefox. I can print from open office. It seems to have something to do with when frames open because in IE, I can print a whole page, but when I try to use a print button embeded in a page or frame it does not work.

Cannot print from firefox at all.
In Internet Explorer, I was able to print by pushing the print button, but when opening a frame, like in mapquest, the embedded print button brings up an options window that has print frames options in it, but when hit OK in this box, a second error box comes up with a yellow exclamation point and nothing prints. I have a feeling that it is the same problem with both browsers, but would prefer using firefox. Can you help with this?

Yes, I tried that.   The files were ordered by their original numbers as imported from the camera, but I batched them through Phocoshop to downsize all of them into a more manageable file size.   I opened that destination folder from quick time from where it said select image sequence.   I clicked on the first one and opened it.   The result was a large image with an arrow indicating a movie was ready to go.   When I pressed the arrow, though, I realized it had only imported that one frame so there was no movie.   The files are Jpgs and are about 450 KB each.
    To your knowledge are there any links to iMovie tutorials or quick time tutorials that may address this situation? Maybe there will be one I haven't looked at yet.
    Thanks

Certificate Chain or Paths

I want to validate a certificate chain. I decided to use CertPathValidator, the problem is that, I have root or trusted certificates in a collection as follows
Collection CACert = cf.generateCertificates(is);
Now the PKIXParameters constructor takes these certificates as Set of TrustAnchors.
PKIXParameters params = new PKIXParameters(set of TrucAnchors);
I don�t know how to convert the collection of certificates to a Set fo TrustAnchors. I can not used the other constructor of PKIXParameters, which takes the KeySotre cause I have all Root Certificates stored in a different format in my MHP application.
Can any one help me out�.

Hummm let me make sure I understand what your saying. It sounds as if you want
to find a portable way of using this particular class. A way that will work
regardless of what JCE provider is installed on the machine running your code?
If that is correct then unfortunately your SOL. The problem is that there is no
public code (interfaces or other) which are defined in the standard Java API
to define this type of class. As a result no matter what you try and do you are
going to have to hard code some class like the boucycastle class.
My recommendation to you would be to include the bouncycastle ASN package with
your code. They do not have to use the BouncyCastle JCE provider but the bouncy
castle code must be in their class path...
Of course you could write your own ASN/DER package and include that instead but
you'll probably find it easier to just include the BC code base in your
distribution. If that distribution is webstart or applet then maybe you trim it
down in size by just including the ASN package and classes that are required by it.

Why are security headers not visible when viewing "sent" mail for mail sent with S/MIME certificates?

I am using an S/MIME certificate to sign my emails using Mail on Mountain Lion 10.8.2. I have a trusted S/MIME certificate for each of my email accounts. The certs and private keys are properly installed in the keychain. I am able to successfully send signed (and optionality encrypted) email and the recipients are all all receiving the emails showing a trusted signed email without having to acknowledge or trust the signature. So technically the certificates are working. Obviously the encryption option is only offered when I also have the recipients certficate in my keychain.
What I am noticing is that when I look in my sent items - (regardless of which email I used as the "sender") - I don't see any indication in the mail headers that the mail was sent with a signed certificate - even though I know the recipient is seeing that the mail is signed with a cert. I have no way of telling whether I sent the mail as "signed" or "unsiged". The default is to use the certificate for all outbound emails - unless I specifically uncheck the secure signing option before sending. In mail that I recieve - sent from others with certs or sent from one of my email accounts to the other - I see the the certificate indication in the email header.
On rare occasion - I do see the certificate when viewing sent mail - but only for random sent mails - and so far I believe I have only seen the certificate show up in mail that is sent from my iCloud account. I can send subsequent mail from iCloud - and still not see the certificate in the sent items.
Why am I not seeing the Security Header showing the certificate when viewing mail that I have sent in my sent items folder? Is there some setting that I am not seeing that controls this - or is this a bug in Mac Mail? Also why does the security header show up for just a handful of sent emails - when hundreds of signed emails have been successfully sent.
Any help would be appreciated. The behavior is the same on my other Macs - at least the ones on which the certificates are also installed.
Also - I don't have my certs installed on my iPhone yet - so I can't tell on the iPhone if the certs are showing up in the sent folder - but I can see the certs on mail that I send to myself from the Mac but receive on the iPhone.
~Scott

I stopped using the S/MIME certs and stopped signing my emails. Too many recipients were receiving them as "attachements" especially if the recipients email account was on an Exchange server. My certs have since expired and I have not done anything to further analyze the situation. My original post was over a year ago and I have long since been on Mavericks.
To: iddontknowwhoiamsowhat ... I am not totally following your response. You say you are seeing the exact same issue - yet you are also saying you can look at the sent mails from os x and ios - does this mean that you see the security badges on the sent emails in both os x and ios? I assume you are on Mavericks?
