Also delete your expired certificate if you have one (for example after a year)

This is likely a bad mistake. Keep the old cert around.

There’s two possibilities:

The first possibility is that Actalis uses the same key pair for the new cert. This is not a great approach because it doesn’t defend against a leaked key or key overuse. After all, if the key can be trusted longer than a year, the first cert they issued should be valid for longer.

The second, and much worse possibility, is that renewing the cert gets a different private key. This can case data loss. Deleting the old identity means you lose the ability to decrypt any messages that were encrypted using that key! Even if your mail client stores the previously encrypted emails in decrypted form, you may receive a new email from a sender who does not yet have your new cert.

Actalis sends you your private key. This means they have access to your private key, and theoretically could use it to sign and decrypt your emails. A more secure but somewhat more complex system would use a certificate signing request (CSR) instead. In that case, you are the only person who ever has your private key, so only you can sign or decrypt your email.

Mister Softee is headquartered in Runnymede, NJ so the east coast association makes sense. It’s a franchisor so there’s trucks in 18 states.

The Wikipedia article about them says the song is titled “Jingle and Chimes”, and it’s based on “The Whistler and his Dog”. There’s lyrics too!

Apparently it was adapted to “Did you ever see a lassie?” which has much brighter and simpler lyrics than the original, which is very dark.

It reminds me of O Du Lieber Augustin. And it took me a really long time to figure out that title… I thought it was some well-known nursery rhyme melody, but it’s a 224 year old Viennese tune.

Yeah, Mr. Softee in San Francisco uses the same music. I don’t recognize it from anywhere else. It sounds like a music box, especially because many of the notes don’t hit the beats.
