Hello,

Thanks for the great book!

I get exceptions in two examples of chapter 9. It happens in EnvelopedSignedMailExample and EnvelopedMailExample.

I'm using BC 133. Can anyone help me?

Cheers,
James

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: unknown object in factory

        at chapter9.EnvelopedSignedMailExample.main(Enveloped SignedMailExample.java:55)

This can happen if the decryption step is wrong or the data stream has become corrupted. Which version of JavaMail are you using? There have been some problems with it and Base64 encoding.

Regards,

David
