I started implementing this a couple of weeks ago using openssl. I'll drag in
out and clean it up a bit and commit it into HEAD in a couple of days. At the
moment all it does is verifies signed messages, but that's a start. 

If _everyone_ out the with SMIME can send me (privatly) some test messags that
would be great as i don't have many to work with. signed, encypted,
signed/encypted etc...
