Send Encrypted Email with a Selected Algorithm (AES, 3DES, etc.)

Sends an encrypted email using the recipient's digital certificate from a .cer file, and chooses 3DES for the encryption algorithm. (It is also possible to send AES encrypted email w/ 128-bit, 192-bit, or 256-bit encryption simply by setting the Pkcs7CryptAlg and Pkcs7KeyLength properties.) React Native

  // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
  // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

  // The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
  const mailman = new MailMan();

  // Set the SMTP server.
  mailman.smtpHost = 'smtp.mymailserver.com';

  // Load the .cer file into a certificate object.
  // When sending S/MIME encrypted email, it is the recipient's
  // certificate that is used for encryption.  Only the public key
  // is needed to encrypt.  The recipient is the only
  // one possessing the private key, and therefore is the only
  // one able to decrypt.

  // Specify the certificate to be used for encryption.

  // If desired, specify the encryption algorithm to be used.
  // The Pkcs7CryptAlg property can be set to "aes", "des", "3des", or "rc2"

  // If desired, set the key length (in bits) for the encryption algorithm:
  // The possible values allowed depend on the Pkcs7CryptAlg property. 
  // For "aes", the key length may be 128, 192, or 256. 
  // For "3des" the key length must be 192. 
  // For "des" the key length must be 40. 
  // For "rc2" the key length can be 40, 56, 64, or 128.
