At launch, each user will need to manually deliver their certificates to their phone/tablet via by sending them in an email attachment.No support for On-premise Exchange users. S/MIME will be only available for Office 365 customers using the Microsoft sync technology for Outlook mobile.When sending to multiple recipients where only some have usable certificates, OWA will still send the S/MIME email to all recipients, rendering the message unreadable to those without a certificate!.
You can’t view the email contents or validate signatures in the normal reading pane you must ‘double-click’ each secured email to open it in a new popup window for the S/MIME control to work.
An ‘S/MIME control’ must be installed within the browser to view S/MIME emails, even signed emails.Internet Explorer 9+ or Edge browser is required no Chrome support.There are many hurdles to navigate to use S/MIME with OWA. Other mobile email apps DO exist to utilize S/MIME on your phone, such as Samsung Galaxy’s built-in email app, Ciphermail, etc. They also couldn’t view their S/MIME emails on their smartphones via the Outlook mobile app. Users could not view their S/MIME emails on a browser via Outlook Web App (OWA). However, a major problem existed for users of S/MIME: you HAD to use your desktop client to view your encrypted emails and validate any signed emails. It allows for enterprises using their own keys/PKI, or 3rd party issued certificates to send and receive signed and encrypted S/MIME emails from end-to-end. The desktop Microsoft Outlook client has fully supported S/MIME signatures and encryption for well over a decade now. The feature is currently in development, and now expected to start rolling out after mid-July 2019. Microsoft Outlook mobile apps will soon have built-in support for S/MIME (Secure Multipurpose Internal Mail Extensions). It describes a long awaited and needed email security feature. Last week, Microsoft announced MC182605 in their admin Message Center.
