For some functionality the library needs to know about certificates and keys:
- Verification of secure connections
To verify secure connections (SSL/TLS/HTTPS) to mail servers, the underlying JVM must know the certificate chain. You can accomplish this by importing them there, or provide an additional Java Key Store (JKS) to the library. - Verification of PGP signatures
To verify PGP signatures, the public key of signers must be known. To do this, you can load a PGP public key ring into the library. Refer to you PGP installation about how to export public keys.
Operations
loadCertificateStore
| Parameter | Types | Direction | Description | Allowed Values / Example | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| keyStoreLocation | String | in | Specify the path to the keystore file. | opt/bridge/crypto/mailservercerts.jks | |
| keyStorePassword | String | in | Specify the password of the keystore. | ||
loadPgpPublicKeyRing
to be discontinued Future versions of the library will rely on setPgpKeyProvider() solely (see below), this operation will disappear. Until then it is still required if you want to verify signatures of unencrypted emails.Parameter Types Direction Description Allowed Values / Example keyRingLocation String in Specify the path to the keyring file. opt/bridge/crypto/pubkeys.asc
