Sign and encrypt e-mail responses
Dear List,
is it possible to sign and encrypt all e-mail responses from the Mailman3 server with a digital certificate?
Best regards, Markus Grandpré

Not without significant code changes. Signing alone should not be difficult. Encryption is more difficult if the recipients are going to be able to read the encrypted mail without access to the server's private key. This would require mail to be personalized, which digests currently aren't, and encrypted with the recipient's public key which requires the server to have all those keys.

Dear Mark,
thank you very much for your response. Is there already a way to enable signing in Mailman v3.3.8 / v3.1 or does the signing support still have to be implemented?
Best regards, Markus Grandpré

It would need to be implemented.
