Parameters

encodingMethod

The form of S/MIME encoding to be applied to the message.

signingCertificate

The Certificate to use when signing a message (in/out). If the provided certificate is null or it's EmailAddress property does not match the sender's, then the user's "My" certificate store will be search for a matching certificate, and will be used to update this parameter.

signingMethod

The signing method to use.

encryptingCertificates

An optional ArrayList of certificates to be used if encrypting a message (can be null). This list is updated with any additional certificates retrieved from the user's "AddressBook" certificate store.

encryptingMethod

The encryption method to use.

Return Value

When not specified the default EncodingMethod is EncodingMethod.SignDetached.

When not (or incorrectly) specified, the certificate used for signing is retrieved from the "My" certificate store for the current user. The email address of the sender is used to identify the required certificate.

When not specified, the default signing method is SigningMethod.Md5 and the default form of encryption used is EncryptingMethod.TripleDes.

When not (or incorrectly) specified, the certificates used for encrypting is retrieved from the "AddressBook" certificate store for the current user. The email address of each recipient is used to locate the required certificate.

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
