SYMPTOMS
BizTalk Server 2002 uses Collaboration Data Objects (CDO)
and the COM version of the Cryptography API (CAPICOM) to validate Secure MIME
(S/MIME) signatures. In certain circumstances, messages that are decrypted by
using CDO do not contain a MIME-Version header that subsequently causes BizTalk
Server to fail signature validation for S/MIME messages. To address the CDO
MIME-Version header problem, you must install the hotfix that is described in
the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
329627 XCLN: Unable to Validate S/MIME Message Using CDO
After you apply the CDO fix, you must then apply
the BizTalk Server hotfix that is described in this article.
