Hi,

maybe I'm wrong for this question on this mailing-list, but as pcscd with
ccid is the underlying access-daemon for my signtrust.de SmartCard I
am hopefully awaiting any answer.

As background, signtrust.de is a german "accredited certification service
vendor" as requested in the german signature law. You can officially sign any
document using the certificates on this SmartCard. The signatures made by
the certificates are utilizable and valid in court actions and are equivalent
to your handwritten signature.
Therefore very strict securing mechanisms are necessary using these
SmartCards. Only class-2 pinpad-readers are feasible. No extraction of
certificates or keys from the card to any other medium should be done.

And now I want to use my mutt-mailer with this SmartCard for signing some
E-mails. With openssl there is no way to use the certificates directly on the
SmartCard, you have to extract the certificate to a real file.

Do you know a proper way to handle this situation? Is there a way to let the
SmartCard (TCOS) do the signing action?

Ciao, Georg
