Hello,

I have a quick question on the SMIME Toolkit.
I have a need to encode/decode messages
that are formatted based on CMS (RFC 2630).

Based on the following web-page:
        http://mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/smime/

one of the goals of the SMIME toolkit was to:
        "Provide an API specifically for generating and
        processing CMS messages."

Has that goal been achieved?

Based on the API at:
http://mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/nss-3.4/nss-3.4-functions.html#smime

it seems like it may be feasible by utilizing the API
provided, assuming that NSS_CMSSignerInfo_AddSMIMECaps
and NSS_CMSSignerInfo_AddSMIMEEncKeyPrefs are not invoked;
however, I am not familiar with the SMIME APIs in the
toolkit.

Can someone confirm whether or not it is feasible
to use the current APIs in NSS 3.9 to generate
as well as parse non-SMIME CMS messages?

Thanks in advance,

Brad Buckingham
