S/MIME profile and device setting dependencies

The following table shows the dependencies between the S/MIME settings that you can configure in 
BlackBerry UEM
 and the S/MIME settings that users can configure on 
BlackBerry 10
 devices. Depending on what these are set to, the options in the Encoding drop-down list on devices change. Devices ignore the value for some settings if a higher priority setting (for example, the "S/MIME support" setting) conflicts with the value for that setting.
