Hi- I'm trying to find a solution for signing all outgoing messages for a sender regardless of who the recipient is. I don't require encryption, only an S/MIME signature. I thought Djigzo was the answer, but it appears that it takes action based on the recipient of the message, not the sender. Adding each recipient to Djigzo is not practical when I have a mailing list of thousands of recipients, and doesn't seem to make sense for signing without encryption... am I misunderstanding how Djigzo works? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! -Justin Justin Zipperle Professional Services Engineer StrongMail Systems, Inc.

Hi Justin, You can setup Djigzo to sign all your outgoing email. Whether an email is signed depends on the settings for the sender and recipient(s). If you make sure that the global settings allow S/MIME than all outgoing message are signed for internal users with a signing certificate (ie a certificate with a private key). In short, on the global settings page do: - check 'S/MIME allowed' - uncheck 'Only sign when encrypt' Make sure that any domain you have added does not override the inherited setting (unless you want to change the values for that domain).

I forgot something. The administration guide contains a flow-chart which explains all the steps of the encryption/signing process. If you follow it step-by-step you will see why and when a message is signed or not.
