Default [7.403]Question: EMAIL Encryption

Hi All

I've read the relevant kb for the email encryption and I've just finished the configuration...well i think!

1)It it true that for email encryption(encrypt outgoing mail) to work you have to have your own mail server (smtp proxy)?
2)Do you have to have either S/MIME or Open pgp defined for a user or can you use still use both(if both are used,which one is used)?
3)Under the C/MIME Authorities, I have no authority imported so far so I guess I am working with open PGP,right?
4)I am using PGP directory to locate public PGP for users but I can;t find them. Even If I have the fingerprint, I still can't

Could someone help me validate the settings? (ie. Exchange keys and send him a dumb email to check whether it's signed/ encrypted etc)

My understanding is that I don't have to configure the email clients.I am hoping that the above make sense!

Thanks
