    Hi everybody,

    we are using Lotus Notes as mail tool and we have a lot of contact to a
    large external company that also uses Lotus Notes. My idea to secure the
    e-mail communication between our two companies to a reasonable level
    (without rolling out PGP or S/MIME-certificates) is to propose a
    cross-certification of Lotus Notes certificates between our companies so
    that we can at least use Notes encryption. We already have a good level
    of trust with confidentiality agreements a.s.o. So in my eye it is only
    a technical implementation of a given trust relationship. Has anybody on
    this list experience with such a Notes-to-Notes cross-certification? Any
    hints what to look out for, how to avoid typical mistakes?
