4. The Keychain Access app should open automatically after providing the password. If not, you can find it in your apps by searching for "keychain".
5. In Keychain Access, on the left-hand menu under Category g o to Certificates. There, you will see the imported certificate with the identity related to the email address for which it was made. Click on the certificate. Note there is an error "This certificate was signed by an unknown authority". You will need to download the Entrust CA intermediate certificate.

Parte 3 de 3: Storing a contact's Secure Email certificate (S/MIME exchange)
You must exchange public keys with a user in order to exchange Encrypted email. To do so send the user a digitally signed email and have them respond to you with a digitally signed email.
1. When you send a digitally signed email to someone for the first time, you will be prompted with the below. Select Allow so that your public key can be sent to the user with whom you are in the process of completing the S/MIME exchange.
2. When the user sends you back a digitally signed email, open their message. A bar beneath the main email header indicates the email has been digitally signed .
On the far right of that header is a Details tab. Drop it down and select Add Encryption Certificate to Contacts .
You can now exchange encrypted email with that user. You can confirm the user's public key has been stored by checking Keychain Access and seeing the user's public key listed there.
It is not recommended you turn on encryption for all messages unless you are sure you will only be sending messages to email addresses that are in your Secure Email exchange environment (such as you just set up above). You can choose to encrypt individual messages by going to the Options tab of on a message window and under the Security button selecting Encrypt Message .
