139637 - Only matching certs should be allowed in S/Mime configuration

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Security: S/MIME, enhancement)

Description

[Charles Rosendahl]

Builds:  20020423 Trunk and Branch

If you have two mail accounts configured, you may use the certificates for
account A in the configuration of Account B.

Example:
Account A: [e-mail]
Account B: [e-mail]

Certificates are issued to email address for account A, but they may also be
configured in the Mail&Newsgroup Account Settings for Account B as well.

Two problems:
#1)  Account B should not even see the certificates for Account A in the
dropdown boxes within the mail account settings
#2)  There is no warning to the user that they are about to send a message where
the email address has no correspondence to the certificate being used.

Mass reassign ssaux bugs to nobody

Comment 3

[Nelson Bolyard (seldom reads bugmail)]

Mass change "Future" target milestone to "--" on bugs that now are assigned to
nobody.  Those targets reflected the prioritization of past PSM management.
Many of these should be marked invalid or wontfix, I think.
