IOS – How to delete a trusted s/mime certificate for a contact in iOS7

How do I remove a s/mime certificate for a contact in iOS7 mail.app?

I'm using s/mime for two-way encrypted emails with several colleagues. A new colleague tried to install s/mime in Outlook for Windows and he sent me a signed email which I opened in iOS and trusted the certificate.

Then he changed his mind and stopped using s/mime (trouble with Outlook). iOS still tries to encrypt the email messages I send to him so he sees blank messages. I can find no way to list the certificates I have trusted for my contacts so I can remove this certificate.

Where do I have to look?

You should be able to view and remove certificates or S/Mime if you go to:

  1. Mail, Contacts and Calender
  2. Go to your mail account
  3. Click advanced
  4. Uncheck S/Mime or remove the certificate

Please also check out this Official Apple Guide By clicking the name in the Mail.App you should be able to revoke the certificate.
