I recently sent a digitally signed email to someone asking them for an
encrypted reply. When they tried to reply they got an error saying that
they first needed to obtain their own certificate. In the security
options he selected "encrypt", but not "digitally sign". Why would he
need his own cert to encrypt something to me? My understanding of public
key encryption is that all he needs to encrypt something to me is the
public key in the certificate I signed the message with. I have also
published my cert to the GAL. So what am I doing wrong?
