Description kolAflash 2016-09-25 22:10:16 UTC
Same as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339087 which is for PGP, but this time for S/MIME.

KMail does not allow to encrypt to expired certificates. It is OK to warn about that (and would be a failure not to do so) but not allowing to encrypt to this key is a severe security failure because it does not make any sense and forces the user to use a different key (if available, usually not) or to send the mail unencrypted.

Reproducible: Always


Actual Results:  
Mail can't be sent.

Expected Results:  
Warning which can be overridden.
