People get confused when they see the smime.p7s files (email s/mime signatures)
What do you guys think about not storing, or at least not
displaying the s/mime signature that can get attached to a
discussion.
I automatically sign all my email. So my discussions look like:
http://support.tgethr.com/discussions/questions/15-identity-verifications
And we've had users ask, what's the "smime.p7s" file, and how do
I open it? For the web interface, this just causes
confusion.
Tgethr (http://tgethr.com) is something we created to do simple group collaboration over email. It's very similar in some ways to Tender here in that it's very "emaily". We use it a lot to do private discussions over our Tender support requests, and we talk about our use of Tender a lot when we talk about reasons why we made tgethr (http://blog.tgethr.com/post/124643305/get-tgethr)
And when we save attachments, we drop any attachments that are signatures
attachments.reject{|a| a.content_type.index("signature")}
Kind of thing. We use the sigs to verify mail coming in though, we just don't keep the sig around.
Discussions are closed to public comments.

Weird, what content type do they come in as? I receive them as text/plain attachments. At any rate, I'm hiding any
*.p7s
assets now, as soon as I deploy tonight.I saw Tgether on Friday and thought it looked pretty interesting. I've wanted to get smime support into Tender for awhile, but we're all gmail/safari users.
