    ODS Webmail Example for Encrypting Emails using Asymmetric Key Technology

    Assume the following scenario where John sends encrypted email message to Kate:

    Prerequisites

    1. Perform the steps from the Virtuoso ODS-Mail Installation Guide.
      • In our example we will use for domain name: mytest.com
    2. Install the ODS Addressbook vad package: ods_addressbook_dav.vad

    Configure ODS User and Webmail settings

    1. Register two users in ODS: John and Kate respectively with emails for ex.: john@yahoo.com and kate@yahoo.com







    2. John and Kate create ODS Webmail instances:
      1. Go to Application Settings ->Application Management and click "New Web Application" button:







      2. Click "Create Application" for application type "Mail".
      3. In the presented form choose domain "mytest.com":







      4. Click "Create and Launch Application"
    3. John creates X.509 Certificate with mail john@mytest.com.
    4. Kate creates X.509 Certificate with mail kate@mytest.com.
    5. John exports his X.509 Certificate, for ex. to local file with name john.p12.
    6. Kate exports her X.509 Certificate, for ex. to local file with name kate.p12.
    7. Kate extracts her Public Key and shares it to John: 

      $ openssl pkcs12 -in kate.p12 -out KatePublicKey.pem -clcerts -nokeys
Enter Import Password:*******
MAC verified OK

      • Suppose the generated Public Key KatePublicKey.pem has the following content: 

        Bag Attributes
