Working with Notes encrypted mail on an Android Device

Reading and sending HCL Notes encrypted and signed mail messages can be performed from an Android device. HCL Verse implements an encryption and decryption strategy that requires server-side access to the user Notes® ID file. The ID file contains the private and public keys necessary to digitally sign, encrypt, and decrypt mail messages.

For digital signing, encrypting, or decrypting to work, the Notes® ID file must be uploaded to the mail file or the ID vault. See "How do I upload my Notes® ID file?" .

Note: Use either a secure socket layer (SSL) connection or a virtual private network (VPN) solution when encryption is enabled on the HCL Traveler server.
