About signature icons
When you open a digitally signed message, a ribbon
icon represents the verification status of the digital
signature.
Ribbon with a check mark: Your BlackBerry®
device verified the digital signature.
Ribbon with an X: Your device could not verify the
digital signature.
Ribbon with a question mark: Your device
requires more data to verify the digital signature.
The icon after the ribbon icon represents the status of
the sender’s PGP® key.
Certificate with a check mark: The sender’s PGP
key is trusted.
X: The sender’s PGP key cannot be found on your
device, is revoked, is not trusted, or cannot be
verified, or the sender’s email address does not
match the email address in the key.
Question mark: Your device requires more data to
verify the trust status, or it considers the key
status to be stale.
Clock: The sender’s PGP key has expired.

About message classifications
If your BlackBerry® device is integrated with an
account that uses BlackBerry Enterprise Server
Version 4.1.2 or later and your system administrator
turns on message classifications, the BlackBerry
Enterprise Server applies a minimum set of security
actions to each message that you compose, forward, or
reply to, based on the classification that you assign to
the message. Your system administrator configures
the set of message classifications that you can use.
If you receive a message that uses message
classifications, your can view the abbreviated
classification in the subject line of the message and
the full description of the classification in the body of
the message. The abbreviated classification and
description also appear in messages in your Sent
Items folder.
