Environment
Novell GroupWise 7.03 HP1
Novell GroupWise Internet Agent (GWIA)
Situation
Encrypted messages sent to Internet recipient can be opened on the recipient site but there is data missing in a message body.
Resolution
This has been reported to the development. A fix of the problem is considered for next coming HP for GW7.03.
Current workaround is to use older, GW7.01 modules for GWIA.
Additional Information
If you set outbound threads on GWIA at 0 to catch outbound Internet mails, you will notice from SMTP converted file that right after the end of the SMIME section GWIA places a second copy of the same information. Here is an example:

2. If you scroll down to the end of the original SMIME you will see that the same info is copied again right after the last character of the first SMIME:
