That message is terribly broken.  It *claims* to be a multipart/signed  
message, but it only contains the SMIME signature.  The actual signed  
data is nowhere to be found.
In other words, this is the structure of your message:
multipart/signed
   application/pkcs7-signature
However, this is NOT what RFC 2633 requires.  From Section 3.4.3 of  
that document:
    The multipart/signed MIME type has two parts. The first part contains the
    MIME entity that is signed; the second part contains the "detached
    signature" CMS SignedData object in which the encapContentInfo
    eContent field is absent.
Thus, this is the structure necessary for multipart/signed:
multipart/signed
   [MIME data part]
   application/pkcs7-signature
Your MUA is badly broken.
