New component: Rebex Secure Mail for .NET - S/MIME and SMTP, IMAP, POP3 over TLS/SSL

August 25, 2006 | Lukas Pokorny

New component has been just released: Rebex Secure Mail for .NET.

This is the next step in the evolution of Rebex Mail for .NET. The following functionality has been added:

SMTP over TLS/SSL
POP3 over TLS/SSL
IMAP over TLS/SSL
S/MIME

Rebex Secure Mail utilizes the well known and widely used TLS/SSL protocols to secure the SMTP, IMAP and POP3 protocols. TLS 1.0 and its predecessor SSL 3.0 provide strong authentication, data integrity and confidentiality. This is achieved by using either RSA or DSA public key cryptography to authenticate the server (or even the client) and to negotiate the encryption method and symmetric keys to be used to encrypt your data.

Also included is the support for S/MIME, also known as Secure MIME, which makes it possible to work with signed and/or encrypted e-mail messages. Rebex Secure Mail for .NET is all you need for secure e-mail communication and digital signatures!
