Are you a home user or are you talking about a business workstation in a
domain environment?

Assuming you are a home user; Why whould you need to Digitaly Sign your
emails?

To add a digital signature you need a Digital Certificate issued by an
administrator of your domain or by an entity like VeriSign
(http://www.verisign.com)

If you don't have/need this feature disable the option in Outlook to stop
getting the error message. Goto TOOLS --> OPTIONS, at the Security tab
uncheck the option "Digitally sign all outgoing messages".

Let us know.

Yes, disable the button SIGN or ENCRYPT on the toolbar if you dont need them.
This are used to add digital signature or encrypt on a case by case basis.
Unlike the option mentioned before which wash already unchecked which is a
global setting.

You may still receive digitaly signed messages from other people who do have
a Digital Certificate. The purpose of the digital signature is to verify the
identity of the sender. You dont need a digital cetrificate to receive
digitaly signed messages.
