Sending an encrypted and signed message to welovenitrodesk: Now that I have welovenitrodesk’s public key, I can send them encrypted mail once they have my public key. I want to make sure it’s still valid, so I click ‘validate’ then once it shows up as validated, I click import. After clicking validate, and it shows up as valid, I click Import, and it gives me the message that it has been validated: In this message, you can see the little signing icon meaning th ey’ve sent me a signed message, so I go and click on the little sign symbol. To get their public key, I have welovenitrodesk send me a sig ned message. (I sent them a signed message earlier, and they validated, so they have it.) I’ll also need their public key as well. Before we do that, they will need our public k ey, but for the sake of simplicity, let’s assume they already have that.

Now, let’s send an encrypted email to the welovenitrodesk account. Once you do that, you should see the certificate on the list of Certificates on the Settings>email settings>Certificates. In this case, I want to use it for signing and encryption:

Go into settings, and under email settings>Certificates.Īdding a certificate from the desktop- I just happened to save mine here:Įntering the certificate password and choosing what it will be used for. If you are trying to set up a certificate for one profile, but are in another profile’s settings, it obviously won’t work.įor the first step, you’re going to need to import your certificate into Touchdown. Note: Also, one major pitfall is to be aware of what profile’s settings you are entering- as you can see in the below screenshot, I have four profiles in this Touchdown installation, so it’s important that I note which one I’m on. (If you’re curious about more information on how S/MIME works, read the first blog post here: ) In this demo, I have my certificate already on my hard drive.

For this tutorial, make sure you have a valid certificate ready- if you’re not sure how to get one, contact your IT team.

In this tutorial, I’m going to be showing how to import certificates for S/MIME in Touchdown for Mac, and how to send signed and encrypted messages. Hi everyone and welcome to Spring! Today we have the last installment of our S/MIME series – today Dragonfly is going to talk about Mac.ĭragonfly from Nitrodesk support here.
