-----END ORDERMAIL IV-----
EPiServer Mail creates a unique symmetric key and uses it to encrypt the order mail content (found starting at -----BEGIN ORDERMAIL MESSAGE-----). The symmetric key and initialization vector is then encrypted with the custom public RSA key of the EPiServer Mail installation and supplies it for decryption on the server side, as shown in example above.
Headers
From EPiServer Mail Order Mail Specification 2.0, version number is defined in the mail header as parameter “EPiServer-Mail-OrderMail-Version”.
