Requirements:
|
|
For sending Kryptiva-packaged emails:
|
|
|
In order to send Kryptiva-packaged emails, a Kryptiva Packaging Server must be
installed on your network. It must be properly configured and your Plugin must be
properly configured to use that Packaging Server. In the case where you have received a
Kryptiva-packaged containing a secure reply token from a Kryptiva-enabled sender, you do not
need the Kryptiva Packaging Server in order to reply securely to that sender.

For processing Kryptiva-packaged emails received:
|
|
|
Whether or not you are part of the Kryptiva community, the Plugin will automtically
recognize incoming Kryptiva-packaged emails and display the appropriate popus if
necessary. In the case where you are part of an organization having deployed the
Kryptiva Packaging Server, the Plugin must be properly configured to communicate with this
server in order to enable you to decrypt incoming emails.
