The GroupWise client accommodates users' preferences for security and privacy when sending
messages. Users can:
Sign a message with standardized text (Windows client > Tools > Options > Environment >
Signature and Linux/Mac client > Tools > Options > Send > Signature).
Sign a message with an electronic business card (vCard) (Windows client > Tools > Options >
Environment > Signature and Linux/Mac client > Tools > Options > Send > Signature).
Digitally sign and/or encrypt a message. See
Digital Signatures, and S/MIME Encryption," on page
Give a message a security classification (Windows client > New Mail > Send Options >
General > Classification > Normal, Proprietary, Confidential, Secret, Top Secret, or For your
eyes only and Linux/Mac client > New Mail > Send Options > Classification).
Conceal the subject of an e-mail message (Windows client > New Mail > Send Options >
Security > Conceal subject).
Mark messages and appointments private so that proxy users cannot see them. (Windows client
> Actions > Mark Private).
Attach a password-protected document to a message and have the application prompt the
recipient to supply the password before the recipient can open the document
Require a password in order to mark a Routing Slip completed (Windows client > Tools >
Options > Security > Send Options > Require password to complete routed item). This can
prevent a user who is proxied to the mailbox from marking the item completed, or if multiple
users proxy to the mailbox, it can be used to ensure that only the user for whom the item was
intended can complete it.
In addition, if the users in your GroupWise system exchange messages with users in other
GroupWise systems, you can set preferences to control what types of information pass between the
two systems. For example, you can prevent external GroupWise users from performing busy
searches or obtaining message delivery status. See
