What does happen if I receive a signed mail and my mail / webmail client does not support S/MIME?

The mail will be shown in you webmailer/mail client like any other mail. The identity of the sender (= S/MIME certificate) is added as an .p7b attachment to the mail.


What does happen if I receive a mail that was encrypted with my public certificate on a mail client that does not support S/MIME or does not have access to my certificate?

You can only read the e-mail with the system / mail client where your certificate with private key was installed. Please transfer your certificate (.p12 or PEM file) to the other system and use a supported mail client.
