Zimbra Encryption Services

[underdog]

Hi Guys,
This should really be a built in feature of zimbra surely. I honestly think that zimbra is set to be one of the most powerful mailsystems around but this is a huge hole in the matrix. Can someone confirm if this is something the Zimbra staff are looking to include in the near future. I don't want to play around with admin extensions if this is on it's way.

This should be released asap. The demand is there and i am surprised this hasnt been done yet. Dont see the feature yet in 6.0.3, and i see requests for this going back to 2007...

Guys what is happening. Zimbra is getting to be best out there....This will make it become even better.

Any news guys?

I work in the Health Care industry, and while I really like Zimbra, the lack of secure email means we could never use this system in production. As per other comments, this is a seriously lacking feature in an otherwise brilliant bit of software that needs to be addressed. From an email perspective it is the single highest priority for me, everything else is nice but so what, this is critical functionality.

I have many clients using Zimbra that would be certainly interested in being able to send secure email. I would be happy to assist with product testing.

Penango (Penango) makes a FF and IE browser plugin that will do PKI signing and encrypting. It lacks CRL and OCSP lookup but is in their roadmap. Or you could use the ZCO and Outlook alternatively.

Actually, contact info at Penango, Inc - Sacramento, California (CA) | Company Profile. Penango's website sucks.

Yup, you are right, and this is also my opinion. Bring this in as a V6 patch, don't wait for 7!

It also needs to be implemented inside of Zimbra Desktop, in such a way that people who aren't using the ZCS can still take advantage of it.

Have a great day
Patrick.

We just discovered that to get PGP for Outlook 2010, we will have to pay over $100 per seat.

If you had PGP in Zimbra desktop, we would be converting users to it. As it stands, we are using Thunderbird for those users.
