10.4: Use .Mac iChat certificates in Mail
Authored by: thecentaur on Jan 02, '06 06:11:34AM

I can't get it to work either. iChat encryption is on. I have a new "Apple .Mac Certificate Authority" certificate in the Keychain Access

I have a certificate with my email name of type certificate. Note that it does not include the "@mac.com" portion in Key Chain manager name field - that is how iChat added it when I clicked the button. Likewise the "Common Name" in the certificate does not include the "@mac.com" portion. Don't know if it should or not, but it was created that way by iChat.

10.4.3. Mail is sending from my .Mac name and receiving for the same.

Any suggestions? ;-)

10.4: Use .Mac iChat certificates in Mail
Authored by: thecentaur on Jan 02, '06 06:26:16AM

I did download the thawte version and the options show up perfectly, so it must be something strange with the iChat version.

Having been a Mac user since 1984 and a ][ user before that, it is little things like that where Apple needs to have everything "just work." That is one of the best features of the Mac, everything should "just work."

If I ever figure out the problem with the other cert, I'll post it...
