SUMMARY
=======
By default, the Key Management Server in Microsoft Exchange Server provides
public/private key encryption pairs that expire after 18 months. This cannot be
changed.
MORE INFORMATION
================
You can still read messages encrypted with your older key pairs. A history of
your encryption key pairs is maintained in both the .EPF file for client use, as
well as in the KM Server database for key escrow purposes.
Old signatures will fail verification with the following error message:
A Signature has expired error.
However, all of the other conditions (message not altered, signature not
suspended, etc.) will pass.
