Description

[Peter Skendrovic]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

Although the signature is recognized and told to sign outgoing email in
preferences, without having " manage certificates " loaded in the background, I
could could not get the signature to work. It also applies to premade email
templates as well. The only workaround I found is stated above.

In addition, an error message pops up saying no digital signature found although
I have asked to sign all outgoing email.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Explained above
2.
3.




This problem also appears to have shown up in the previous two builds, and I
have not seen it mentioned anywhere else.

I have just tried this with the 7.0 RTM build, and I cannot reproduce it on the
win98 platform.

Can you try to create a new profile and see if the problem still persists?  It
could be something has happened to your database.  You don't by chance run
mozilla and netscape at the same time do you?

Somewhere, the wires have been crossed. The bug described refers to Mozilla and 
not to Netscape 7.0. Please accept my apologies for any misdirection of reports 
on my part. I suppose I sent it to the wrong place and have not used the bug 
reporting system correctly. And no I am not sharing directories.

Does this problem still persist?

I have tried the latest mozilla builds on win98 (20020930) and cannot reproduct
the problem.

could this have to do with localization?

Comment 5

[Charles Rosendahl]

Marking this as works for me on the latest mozilla builds (20021021).  If this
is not the case, please reopen on your side.  I cannot reproduce the problem on
several different systems.
