Hi folks
I recently got a free S/MIME certificate from Thawte in order to try out
S/MIME digital signatures and am wondering what everyone's opinions are
of S/MIME vs PGP/GPG? Certainly I have actually never received an
S/MIME encoded email from anyone, ever, but I do receive a lot of
PGP/GPG signed mail. However S/MIME is purportedly more widely
supported by mail clients, particularly the mail clients sold by a
particular large vendor in America.
Anyone have any thoughts for or against S/MIME?
Cheers
