Working with Encrypted Emails in Crossware

What Happens When an Email Is Encrypted

  • If email encryption is enabled in Microsoft 365, the email is secured using Microsoft’s encryption keys.

  • Crossware Email Signature cannot decrypt the email (it does not have access to the encryption keys).

  • As a result:

    • Crossware will not append signatures inside the encrypted portion.

    • However, a signature may be added to any plain-text or HTML wrapper around the encrypted component.


What You Can Do

  • Use Client-side Signatures, a signature configuration is appended at composition time (when the message is being written).

  • Because the signature gets applied before the message is sent (rather than afterwards via Crossware’s servers), encryption does not block the signature.
