smime verification problem

[Gerd Schering]

Hi,

I use the smime utility to sign a message and output it in PEM format:

openssl smime -sign -in req.csr -outform PEM -out mail.pem -signer \ mycert.pem -inkey mykey.pem

When trying to verify it, I get a failure:

openssl smime -verify -inform PEM -in mail.pem -CAfile CAstore
Verification failure
17732:error:2107507A:PKCS7 routines:PKCS7_verify:no \ content:pk7_smime.c:172:

The CAstore file contains the necessary CA certs.
When I drop the inform/outform PEM in both commands, everything works smoothly - so what did I get wrong?

Gerd
