Initial situation:

For email recipients without their own key material with whom it is to be communicated frequently,

GINA is to be used with a fixed account (Account login).

 

For a one-time secure communication, however, it shall be possible to forego the registration process, i.e. the password shall only be valid for the respective GINA mail (Unique e-mail password).

 

Question:

Is a parallel utilisation of both authentication options possible?

 

Answer/solution:

Yes, this is possible. For this purpose, two separate GINA domains must first be created, one with an active account login, the other with an active unique email password.

 

In the settings of the Managed domain (see Mail System), and/or EDIT MANAGED DOMAIN the GINA domain to be used by default is selected under Settings GINA domain. In the further course of the example, it is assumed that Account login is the selected standard procedure.

 

In the following step, the Custom commands for outgoing e-mails BEFORE encryption: option is activated under Mail Processing Ruleset generator Custom commands and the following code is entered into the input field below, for example:

 

Code

 

Thus, by marking an email with the keyword [once] in the subject line, it can be controlled via the ENCRYPTION POLICY still to be created.

 

Now, in Mail Processing, click Edit policy table... to open the submenu ENCRYPTION POLICY in which the already mentioned rule is created via Create new encryption policy... Here, it is to be ensured that under Policy flag "once" (without quotation marks) is entered, while "GINA-only" is set under Encryption mode and, under GINA options, the GINA domain is selected in which the unique email password is used.
