About M7M

An M7M is a small MIME message, like an email with two attachments: a P7M signed file and the timestamp a time stamping authority issued for it. Italian signing apps save one when they stamp a signed file, as contract.pdf.m7m or invoice.xml.m7m.

The timestamp proves the signature existed at that moment, so it still counts after the signer's certificate expires. Its authority signs it with a certificate of its own, often a qualified one.

Filepeek checks the signature and the timestamp against the roots it carries, Italy's qualified ones among them, and that the timestamp is for this very signature. Then the file inside opens in its own viewer, and a FatturaPA invoice is laid out as an invoice.

Questions

How do I open an M7M file?

Drop it on this page or press Peek an M7M. You see who signed it and when it was stamped, and the file inside opens in its own viewer.

What's the difference between M7M, TSD and P7M?

A P7M is the signed file alone. An M7M and a TSD each keep it with its timestamp: an M7M as a MIME message, a TSD in the standard form RFC 5544 sets out.

Does the signature still count after the certificate expires?

That's what the timestamp is for. Filepeek checks the signer's certificate at the timestamp's time, so a signature stamped while its certificate was valid still holds.

Is my file uploaded?

No. The file opens inside your browser and never leaves your device.
