The following errata report has been submitted for RFC2633,
"S/MIME Version 3 Message Specification".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5019

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Josh Soref <jsoref@gmail.com>

Section: 5

Original Text
-------------
id-aa-encrypKeyPref OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {id-aa 11}


Corrected Text
--------------
id-aa-encrypKeyPref [sic] OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {id-aa 11}

Notes
-----
encryp isn't a word, it's a typo. Unfortunately, like http's (rfc1945) referer [sic] before it, this is now part of the API.

This error should be highlighted (as rfc2068 does for referer [sic]) so that people are aware that the natural spelling doesn't apply.

If it's possible for a revised RFC to be published suggesting the correct spelling w/ a way for clients/servers to handle the old spelling, that would be nice, but based on precedent, that seems unlikely.

Instructions:
-------------
This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party
