I got the SMIME through... if you want to do this - the company that hosts your exchange needs to "enable" it. It took several companies before I found one that would (which surprised me as the directions for doing so are not hard.) Most don't even know what you are talking about. Even after getting that part out of the way - this was not easy.

As far as using SMIME for free accounts from your computer, like Yahoo/Hotmail - you can do this by putting them through Outlook (which you pay for,) but it also works through Windows Mail. Windows Mail is a free download, and actually, it's a very good program.

I found that Redirect on DM 5.0 only works with exchange folders... you can't redirect your Yahoo account inbox through the BES. I actually see why now, but it was a cool "thought."
