I am having an issue with one of your software products. At first it looked like MS outlook 2003 was sending SMIME v3 email message and SMIME_read_PKCS7 was having trouble parsing it. I have since found that this is not the case. It look more like a problem in how we are parsing other parts of the email message header.

If the issue comes back to being SMIME I will try to provide you with more details.

Thanks,
Perry

Hello,

The man page for smime says that openssl does not support smime version 3. Under the BUGS section.

http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/smime.html

Does anyone know if there is any work being done to support smime Version 3?


There have been many queries and discussion but so far no one has been willing
to fund the effort: it is a *lot* of work.

If not is there possible another C api that already has support for parsing smime version 3?


In practice you rarely need S/MIME v3. Is there some specific feature you
require?
