Sorry, I can't help you but I do have a question, if you don't mind ... Why are the Students at the University don't use OpenPGP with Gmail via the free Mailvelope add-on for Firefox, Chrome? Wouldn't that be not cheaper instead of purchasing a whole lot of S/MIME certificates? And Mailvelope is also super easy to use and no GnuPG installation is required.
