Using cryptographic keys

NOTE: The management of domain certificates and domain PGP keys under the corporate domains and the administration of certificates and PGP keys under the email addresses of corporate users is practically identical. The key selection process is described centrally here.

To use a cryptographic key for your domains, you must perform several steps.

1. Import the key for your corporate domain. See Importing certificates and Importing PGP keys.
2. Make sure that the domain of the key is in included in your corporate domains.
3. Create a user in the Corporate users to which the email address of the certificate will be assigned.
   This email address automatically contains your imported certificate.
4. Go to the cryptographic keys of the email address using the Modify cryptographic keys function.
5. Select the imported key and then select Promote to Domain Certificates or Promoteto Domain PGP Key.
   Promoting moves the key from the local email address to your corporate domains.

NOTE: After saving, check the signature and encryption settings for your domain certificate in the affected corporate domain.
