Client certificates in emails are not rare, even to the contrary, they are predominant. The proportion of verifiable client certificates is about the same proportion of verifiable server certificates.
I think there are a few MTAs that have different config for certificate presented as a client vs a receiver. For instance postfix has a different config and says not to use client certs, I tend to disagree. This advice may have been written in the early days of STARTTLS. The world has changed, especially after Snowden. http://www.postfix.org/TLS_README.html#client_cert_key On Thu, Apr 14, 2016 at 8:23 AM, Al Iverson <aiver...@spamresource.com> wrote: > Thanks for that. :) > > -- > Al Iverson > www.aliverson.com > (312)725-0130 > > > On Thu, Apr 14, 2016 at 3:02 AM, Steve Freegard <steve.freeg...@fsl.com> > wrote: > > > > On 14/04/16 00:58, Al Iverson via mailop.org wrote: > >> > >> Boo @ designing something so that "FAIL is really nothing is to be > >> concerned with." > >> > >> It's the kind of thing deliverability people will now be spending the > >> rest of their lives explaining to clients that this big ole FAIL is to > >> be ignored. > >> > > > > Agreed - which is why it's been changed now. > > > > Cheers, > > Steve. > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > mailop mailing list > > mailop@mailop.org > > https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop > > _______________________________________________ > mailop mailing list > mailop@mailop.org > https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop >
