For the record, since it might help someone else having a similar
problem, it turned out that the message was correctly decrypted however,
the resulting message was opaquely signed. An opaquely signed message
can only be read with an S/MIME aware application (a clear signed
message can be read like a normal email). Since the mail application
that had to extract the attachment was not capable of reading S/MIME
opaque signed email, it did not detect the attachment. The solution was
to have the gateway remove the digital signature by checking the
advanced S/MIME setting "Remove signature". The will remove the S/MIME
signature which then results in a normal email with the attachment.

Kind regards,
