#3808: mutt-1.5.23.1: 'Invalid value passed to IPC'
--------------------+----------------------

Component:  mutt    |    Version:  1.5.23

--------------------+----------------------
 A work colleague sends me S/MIME signed messages which I read with
 mutt + gpgme/gpgsm. Most of them I can read[*], but for some I get


 {{{
 [-- Error: decryption failed: Invalid value passed to IPC --]
 }}}


 as the body, nothing else.


 Some more information in the hope it helps debugging: When looking at
 the headers, I see


 {{{
 Content-Type: application/pkcs7-mime; smime-type=signed-data;
         name="smime.p7m"
 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7m"
 Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
 MIME-Version: 1.0

 }}}

 and then a base64 encoded body.

 When I manually decode the body, I get weird characters at the start
 before the real test, but perhaps that's the p7m file format:

 [*] Format for those is
