Hi guys.

Does encrypted email work just one direction?

I would like an internet user to send me encrypted email. I do not want to send him encrypted email.

This is what I have done:
1. I have bought the certificate from Verisign
2. I installed it into my ID file (following their procedure).
3. I sent a signed message to the Internet user
4. The internet user was told that it was a signed message and he added me to his address book.
5. He tried to send me an encrypted message, but got an error, there is no certificate which can be used....
Looks like my public key is not there or something else is missing.

What am I doing wrong here? Does the other side have to have a digital certificate too?

Thank you guys.
