Thanks for the response Mike. The copy in Sent is correct and opens when the
encryption password is used (I use strong encryption requiring password
entry for all encrypted messages) but the received copy does not. I've shut
down my email scanners looking for any malware. ll have to contact my host
provider to see if the SMTP or POP service is doing something I'm not aware
of.

Do you see the same results with the message in your Sent Items folder
that you sent?

If that's OK, then something may be altering the message in transit. I
your mail coming in via an Exchange mail server? That can have some
issue with S/MIME.

Other potential culprits include anti-virus scanning of e-mail or
anti-spam programs.

Recently after one of the security updates to OE the receipt of
encrypted email changed. In the past the email that has been encrypted
was part of the body of the message. Now the message comes as an
attachment with a suffix of ".p7m" with no way to open it. I've tested
this with my own Digital ID that is stored as the primary ID in OE and
the result is the same.
Can anyone help in this?

Thanks in advance.
