The Encryption Management Server mail log does not show which cipher was used for encryption or decryption under Reporting / Logs / Mail.
SMTP-00015: recipient 1/1 ([email protected]): signing, encrypting to 1 keys:
SMTP-00011: recipient 1/1 ([email protected]): decrypting and verifying signature
SMTP-00014: recipient 1/1 ([email protected]): decrypting
This is by design.
While Encryption Management Server does not log information about the cipher, Encryption Desktop does log information about the cipher when decrypting messages and also logs more information about encryption than Encryption Management Server:
