## Remarks

Use MailWriter to compose, sign, and encrypt e-mail messages, and prepare them for sending or saving.

Preparing a very simple message and saving it to a file:

```text
  MailWriter writer = new MailWriter();
  writer.From.Add(new MailAddress("John Doe", "jdoe@company.com"));
  writer.SendTo.Add(new MailAddress("Mary Dow", "mdow@home.com"));
  writer.Message.Subject = "Lating to the party";
  writer.Message.PlainText = "Hi Mary!\r\nStill in the office waiting for my partner.\r\nProbably I'll be late to the party for about an hour.\r\nSorry.\r\nJohn";
  writer.SaveToFile("path\\message.eml");
```

Attaching an image and referencing it from the message text:

```text
  writer.AttachImage("myimage", File.ReadAllBytes("path\\image.jpg"));
  writer.Attachments[0].ContentSubtype = "jpeg";
  writer.Message.HtmlText = "<html><body>Message with an image<p><img src=\"cid:myimage\"></body></html>";
```

Signing a message with a certificate (note that the certificate should contain its private key):

```text
  CertificateManager manager = new CertificateManager();
  manager.ImportFromFile("path\\cert.pfx", "password");

  writer.SecuritySettings.Sign = true;
  writer.SecuritySettings.HashAlgorithm = "SHA256";
  writer.SigningCertificate = manager.Certificate;
  writer.SaveToFile("path\\message.eml");
```

Encrypting a message with one or more certificates (no private key is required):

```text
  CertificateManager manager = new CertificateManager();
  manager.ImportFromFile("path\\cert.cer", "");

  writer.SecuritySettings.Encrypt = true;
  writer.SecuritySettings.EncryptionAlgorithm = "AES256";
  writer.EncryptionCertificates.Add(manager.Certificate);
  // add more certificates if needed
  writer.SaveToFile("D:\\test.eml");
```

# ExternalCryptoKeyID Property ([SecureBlackbox_MailWriter](#mailwriter-class) Class)

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

## Object Oriented Interface

```text
public function getExternalCryptoKeyID();
public function setExternalCryptoKeyID($value);
```

## Procedural Interface

```text
secureblackbox_mailwriter_get($res, 68 );
secureblackbox_mailwriter_set($res, 68, $value );
```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

The ID of the pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Asynchronous DCAuth-driven communication requires that parties authenticate each other with a secret pre-shared cryptographic key. This provides an extra protection layer for the protocol and diminishes the risk of the private key becoming abused by foreign parties. Use this property to provide the pre-shared key identifier, and use [ExternalCryptoKeySecret](#externalcryptokeysecret-property-secureblackbox_mailwriter-class) to pass the key itself.

The same KeyID/KeySecret pair should be used on the DCAuth side for the signing requests to be accepted.

Note: The KeyID/KeySecret scheme is very similar to the AuthKey scheme used in various Cloud service providers to authenticate users.

Example:

```text
  signer.ExternalCrypto.KeyID = "MainSigningKey";
  signer.ExternalCrypto.KeySecret = "abcdef0123456789";
```

## Data Type

String

# ExternalCryptoKeySecret Property ([SecureBlackbox_MailWriter](#mailwriter-class) Class)

```

## Procedural Interface

```text
secureblackbox_mailwriter_get($res, 69 );

```

## Default Value

''

## Remarks

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication. This key must be set and match the key used by the DCAuth counterpart for the scheme to work.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#config-settings-mailwriter-class), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

```

## Remarks

Assign a handler to this event if you need to delegate a low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. Depending on the settings, the handler will receive a hashed or unhashed value to be signed.

The event handler must pass the value of *Data* to the signer, obtain the signature, and pass it back to the class via the *SignedData* parameter.

*OperationId* provides a comment about the operation and its origin. It depends on the exact class being used, and may be empty. *HashAlgorithm* specifies the hash algorithm being used for the operation, and *Pars* contains algorithm-dependent parameters.

The class uses base16 (hex) encoding for the *Data*, *SignedData*, and *Pars* parameters. If your signing engine uses a different input and output encoding, you may need to decode and/or encode the data before and/or after the signing.

A sample MD5 hash encoded in base16: a0dee2a0382afbb09120ffa7ccd8a152 - lower case base16 A0DEE2A0382AFBB09120FFA7CCD8A152 - upper case base16

A sample event handler that uses the .NET RSACryptoServiceProvider class may look like the following:

```text
signer.OnExternalSign += (s, e) =>
{
       var cert = new X509Certificate2("cert.pfx", "", X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable);
       var key = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)cert.PrivateKey;

       var dataToSign = e.Data.FromBase16String();
       var signedData = key.SignHash(dataToSign, "2.16.840.1.101.3.4.2.1");
       e.SignedData = signedData.ToBase16String();
};
```

```

## Procedural Interface

```text
secureblackbox_mailwriter_register_callback($res, 3, array($this, 'fireNotification'));
```

## Parameter List

```text
 'eventid' 'eventparam'
```

## Remarks

The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the class. For example, it may fire to report completion of the document processing. The list of events being reported is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier of the event is provided in the *EventID* parameter. *EventParam* contains any parameters accompanying the occurrence. Depending on the type of the class, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.

# Config Settings ([MailWriter](#mailwriter-class) Class)

 The class accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [Config](#config-method-secureblackbox_mailwriter-class) method.

### MailWriter Config Settings

**BitsInKey**: Key length for the block cipher used for encryption. The value should be a multiple of 8.

**IncludeSigningCertificate**: If true (by default), the signing certificate is included into the signature. Otherwise, it is included only if SigningChain is not empty.

**TempPath**: Path for storing temporary files.This setting specifies an absolute path to the location on disk where temporary files are stored. This setting is supported only in the Java edition for all applicable signing components except [PDFSigner](PDFSigner.md#PDFSigner), where this limitation does not apply.

### Base Config Settings

**ASN1UseGlobalTagCache**: Controls whether ASN.1 module should use a global object cache.This is a performance setting. It is unlikely that you will ever need to adjust it.

**AssignSystemSmartCardPins**: Specifies whether CSP-level PINs should be assigned to CNG keys.This is a low-level tweak for certain cryptographic providers. It is unlikely that you will ever need to adjust it.

**CheckKeyIntegrityBeforeUse**: Enables or disable private key integrity check before use.This global property enables or disables private key material check before each signing operation. This slows down performance a bit, but prevents a selection of attacks on RSA keys where keys with unknown origins are used.

You can switch this property off to improve performance if your project only uses known, good private keys.

**CookieCaching**: Specifies whether a cookie cache should be used for HTTP(S) transports.Set this property to enable or disable cookies caching for the class.

Supported values are:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| off |  | No caching (default) |
| local |  | Local caching |
| global |  | Global caching |

**Cookies**: Gets or sets local cookies for the class.Use this property to get cookies from the internal cookie storage of the class and/or restore them back between application sessions.

**DefDeriveKeyIterations**: Specifies the default key derivation algorithm iteration count.This global property sets the default number of iterations for all supported key derivation algorithms. Note that you can provide the required number of iterations by using properties of the relevant key generation component; this global setting is used in scenarios where specific iteration count is not or cannot be provided.

**DNSLocalSuffix**: The suffix to assign for TLD names.Use this global setting to adjust the default suffix to assign to top-level domain names. The default is *.local*.

**EnableClientSideSSLFFDHE**: Enables or disables finite field DHE key exchange support in TLS clients.This global property enables or disables support for finite field DHE key exchange methods in TLS clients. FF DHE is a slower algorithm if compared to EC DHE; enabling it may result in slower connections.

This setting only applies to sessions negotiated with TLS version 1.3.

**EnableSSHMLKEM**: Enables support for ML-KEM/hybrid key exchange algorithms in SSH client and server components.Use this setting to enable hybrid key exchange algorithms in client and server SSH and SFTP components. This is a global setting that enables ML-KEM blanketly in all SSH-dependent components.

**EnableTLSMLKEM**: Enables support for ML-KEM and hybrid groups in TLS client and server components.Use this setting to enable ML-KEM and hybrid key exchange groups in client and server TLS components. This is a global setting that enables ML-KEM blanketly in all TLS-dependent components.

**GlobalCookies**: Gets or sets global cookies for all the HTTP transports.Use this property to get cookies from the GLOBAL cookie storage or restore them back between application sessions. These cookies will be used by all the classes that have its *CookieCaching* property set to "global".

**HardwareCryptoUsePolicy**: The hardware crypto usage policy.This global setting controls the hardware cryptography usage policy.

Supported Values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |

This value will be used by all the HTTP clients including the ones used internally in other classes.

**HttpVersion**: The HTTP version to use in any inner HTTP client components created.Set this property to 1.0 or 1.1 to indicate the HTTP version that any internal HTTP clients should use.

**IgnoreExpiredMSCTLSigningCert**: Whether to tolerate the expired Windows Update signing certificate.It is not uncommon for Microsoft Windows Update Certificate Trust List to be signed with an expired Microsoft certificate. Setting this global property to true makes SBB ignore the expired factor and take the Trust List into account.

**ListDelimiter**: The delimiter character for multi-element lists.Allows to set the delimiter for any multi-entry values returned by the component as a string object, such as file lists. For most of the components, this property is set to a newline sequence.

| keepolder |  | Keep older entries in the cache upon reaching LogMaxEventCount (newer entries are discarded) |

**MaxASN1BufferLength**: Specifies the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 primitive tag data.This global property limits the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 tag data for non-content-carrying structures, such as certificates, CRLs, or timestamps. It does not affect structures that can carry content, such as CMS/CAdES messages. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

**MaxASN1TreeDepth**: Specifies the maximal depth for processed ASN.1 trees.This global property limits the maximal depth of ASN.1 trees that the component can handle without throwing an error. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

**OCSPHashAlgorithm**: Specifies the hash algorithm to be used to identify certificates in OCSP requests.This global setting defines the hash algorithm to use in OCSP requests during chain validation. Some OCSP responders can only use older algorithms, in which case setting this property to SHA1 may be helpful.

**OldClientSideRSAFallback**: Specifies whether the SSH client should use a SHA1 fallback.Tells the SSH client to use a legacy ssh-rsa authentication even if the server indicates support for newer algorithms, such as rsa-sha-256. This is a backward-compatibility tweak.

**PKICache**: Specifies which PKI elements (certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses) should be cached.The PKICache setting specifies which Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) elements should be cached to optimize performance and reduce retrieval times. It supports comma-separated values to indicate the specific types of PKI data that should be cached.

Supported Values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| certificate | Enables caching of certificates. |
| crl | Enables caching of Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs). |
| ocsp | Enables caching of OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) responses. |

Example (default value):

```text
PKICache=certificate,crl,ocsp
```

 In this example, the component caches certificates, CRLs, and OCSP responses.

**PKICachePath**: Specifies the file system path where cached PKI data is stored.The PKICachePath setting defines the file system path where cached PKI data (e.g., certificates, CRLs, OCSP responses and Trusted Lists) will be stored. This allows the system to persistently save and retrieve PKI cache data, even across application restarts.

The default value is an empty string - no cached PKI data is stored on disk.

Example:

```text
PKICachePath=C:\Temp\cache
```

 In this example, the cached PKI data is stored in the C:\Temp\cache directory.

**ProductVersion**: Returns the version of the SecureBlackbox library.This property returns the long version string of the SecureBlackbox library being used (major.minor.build.revision).

**ServerSSLDHKeyLength**: Sets the size of the TLS DHE key exchange group.Use this property to adjust the length, in bits, of the DHE prime to be used by the TLS server.

**StaticDNS**: Specifies whether static DNS rules should be used.Set this property to enable or disable static DNS rules for the class. Works only if *UseOwnDNSResolver* is set to *true*.

Supported values are:

|  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
| none |  | No static DNS rules (default) |
| local |  | Local static DNS rules |
| global |  | Global static DNS rules |

**StaticIPAddress[domain]**: Gets or sets an IP address for the specified domain name.Use this property to get or set an IP address for the specified domain name in the internal (of the class) or global DNS rules storage depending on the *StaticDNS* value. The type of the IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) is determined automatically. If both addresses are available, they are divided by the | (pipe) character.

**StaticIPAddresses**: Gets or sets all the static DNS rules.Use this property to get static DNS rules from the current rules storage or restore them back between application sessions. If *StaticDNS* of the class is set to "*local*", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the internal storage of the class. If *StaticDNS* of the class is set to "*global*", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the GLOBAL storage. The rules list is returned and accepted in JSON format.

**Tag**: Allows to store any custom data.Use this config property to store any custom data.

**TLSSessionGroup**: Specifies the group name of TLS sessions to be used for session resumption.Use this property to limit the search of cached TLS sessions to the specified group. Sessions from other groups will be ignored. By default, all sessions are cached with an empty group name and available to all the classes.

**TLSSessionLifetime**: Specifies lifetime in seconds of the cached TLS session.Use this property to specify how much time the TLS session should be kept in the session cache. After this time, the session expires and will be automatically removed from the cache. Default value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).

**TLSSessionPurgeInterval**: Specifies how often the session cache should remove the expired TLS sessions.Use this property to specify the time interval of purging the expired TLS sessions from the session cache. Default value is 60 seconds (1 minute).

**UseCRLObjectCaching**: Specifies whether reuse of loaded CRL objects is enabled.This setting enables or disables the caching of CRL objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a CRL object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where CRL objects are frequently used.

**UseInternalRandom**: Switches between SecureBlackbox-own and platform PRNGs.Allows to switch between internal/native PRNG implementation and the one provided by the platform.

**UseLegacyAdESValidation**: Enables legacy AdES validation mode.Use this setting to switch the AdES component to the validation approach that was used in SBB 2020/SBB 2022 (less attention to temporal details).

**UseOCSPResponseObjectCaching**: Specifies whether reuse of loaded OCSP response objects is enabled.This setting enables or disables the caching of OCSP response objects. When set to true (the default value), the system checks if a OCSP response object is already loaded in memory before attempting to load a new instance. If the object is found, the existing instance is reused, and its reference count is incremented to track its usage. When the reference count reaches zero, indicating that no references to the object remain, the system will free the object from memory. This setting enhances performance by minimizing unnecessary object instantiation and promotes efficient memory management, particularly in scenarios where OCSP response objects are frequently used.

**UseOwnDNSResolver**: Specifies whether the client components should use own DNS resolver.Set this global property to false to force all the client components to use the DNS resolver provided by the target OS instead of using own one.

**UseSharedSystemStorages**: Specifies whether the validation engine should use a global per-process copy of the system certificate stores.Set this global property to false to make each validation run use its own copy of system certificate stores.

**UseSystemNativeSizeCalculation**: An internal CryptoAPI access tweak.This is an internal setting. Please do not use it unless instructed by the support team.

**UseSystemOAEPAndPSS**: Enforces or disables the use of system-driven RSA OAEP and PSS computations.This global setting defines who is responsible for performing RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS computations where the private key is stored in a Windows system store and is exportable. If set to true, SBB will delegate the computations to Windows via a CryptoAPI call. Otherwise, it will export the key material and perform the computations using its own OAEP/PSS implementation.

This setting only applies to certificates originating from a Windows system store.

**UseSystemRandom**: Enables or disables the use of the OS PRNG.Use this global property to enable or disable the use of operating system-driven pseudorandom number generation.

**XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]**: Defines an OID mapping to descriptor names for the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN.This property defines custom mappings between Object Identifiers (OIDs) and descriptor names. This mapping specifies how the certificate's issuer and subject information (ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements respectively) are represented in XML signatures.

The property accepts comma-separated values where the first descriptor name is used when the OID is mapped, and subsequent values act as aliases for parsing.

Syntax:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[OID]=PrimaryName,Alias1,Alias2");
```

Where:

OID: The Object Identifier from the certificate's IssuerRDN or SubjectRDN that you want to map.

PrimaryName: The main descriptor name used in the XML signature when the OID is encountered.

Alias1, Alias2, ...: Optional alternative names recognized during parsing.

Usage Examples:

Map OID 2.5.4.5 to SERIALNUMBER:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[2.5.4.5]=SERIALNUMBER");
```

Map OID 1.2.840.113549.1.9.1 to E, with aliases EMAIL and EMAILADDRESS:

```text
Config("XMLRDNDescriptorName[1.2.840.113549.1.9.1]=E,EMAIL,EMAILADDRESS");
```

**XMLRDNDescriptorPriority[OID]**: Specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID.This property specifies the priority of descriptor names associated with a specific OID that allows to reorder descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during signing.

**XMLRDNDescriptorReverseOrder**: Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in RDN.Specifies whether to reverse the order of descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to true (as specified in RFC 2253, 2.1).

**XMLRDNDescriptorSeparator**: Specifies the separator used between descriptors in RDN.Specifies the separator used between descriptors in the ds:IssuerRDN and ds:SubjectRDN elements during XML signing. By default, this property is set to ", " value.
