RE: openssl smime ability to create a multi-attachment message?
Hey Steve, When I create a mime message with mutt then pass it to openssl, the mime message created in mutt contains date, to, from, and subject...but isn't s/mime supposed to contain that? If I create a mime message with all the header information then sign that mime message with S/MIME with all the header information will this cause a problem on some systems? Or should it be ok?! Maybe there is an easier way to generate S/MIME messages with attachments?!

RE: openssl smime ability to create a multi-attachment message?
Does openssl support taking a mime message and doing this? Or is there something else I will need to convert a mime message to smime?

The input to the smime command is expected to be in MIME format unless you specify -text in which case it adds text/plain headers. However OpenSSL only does EOL=CRLF translation on the whole MIME document by default. If that is inappropriate you have to supply a canonical MIME document and turn off translation with the -binary option. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
