email address and signed operations

[Vesna Hassler <hassler@infosys.tuwien.ac.at>]

Hi,

RFC2312 mandates the use of email address in an S/MIME certificate.
Is it also the case for the "Signed Directory Operations Using S/MIME"?
If it is, it should be important to have RFC2312 as a reference
in the sigops draft.

However, I don't think it's a good idea to mandate the use of email address
for directory applications, since there are cases in which not all
certified subjects have an email address (e.g. bank customers).

Could the sigops authors comment on that? Thanks.
