About vCard contact attachments
vCard® contact attachments (.vcf files) contain information for a specific contact. When you add a vCard contact attachment to an email
message, recipients of your email message can view your contact information or add it to the contact list on their BlackBerry® device. When
you open an email message that contains a vCard contact attachment, a book icon appears at the end of the message with the name of the
attached contact.
Add a contact to your contact list from a contact attachment
In a contact attachment, press the
key > Add to Contacts or Update Contact.

About signing and encrypting messages
If your email account uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports this feature, you can digitally sign or encrypt messages to add another
level of security to email and PIN messages that you send from your BlackBerry device. Digital signatures are designed to help recipients verify
the authenticity and integrity of messages that you send. When you digitally sign a message using your private key, recipients use your public
key to verify that the message is from you and that the message has not been changed.
Encryption is designed to keep messages confidential. When you encrypt a message, your device uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt the
message. Recipients use their private key to decrypt the message.
To send an encrypted PIN message, you must have a PIN and an email address for the contact in your contact list. Your device uses the email
address in your contact list to locate a PGP® key or certificate for the contact.
