Hello Goetz, thank you very much for this information. My problem is that the german health insurance companies expect PEM mail. So I have no choice. It would be very helpful to know how to create Pem mails. Otherwise how do I create PKCS#7 mailformat?
P.S. Meanwhile I'm able to compile and debug openssl. Bye Martin Martin wrote: > HI there, Hello Martin, > I'm a newbie to openssl.

One can use the basic signing / encrypting functionallity of OpenSSL to create the signature and build the signed message by hand. I did that some years ago. But I fear this is something out of the range for a newbie. But since the PEM mail format is practically dead, I recommend it's official successor PKCS#7.
