Alpine 2.0 fails to decrypt a S/MIME mail

This is a discussion on Alpine 2.0 fails to decrypt a S/MIME mail within the Pine forums in Other Technologies category; Hi *, I fetched the alpine 2.0 source rpm and compiled it into a binary rpm. After installation and minor problems I managed it to send a mail addressed to myself encrypted as a S/MIME mail. The trial to decrypt this mail led to the status bar error message Couldn't load PKCS7 object: unknown error Exporting this mail and trying to decrypt it with "openssl smime" only worked after explicitly declaring the kryptographic content to be in DER format. Does anybody have a solution for this? System OpenSuSE 11.2 with openssl 0.9.8d 23.7. Best regards Henning Hucke...

Default Alpine 2.0 fails to decrypt a S/MIME mail

Hi *,

I fetched the alpine 2.0 source rpm and compiled it into a binary rpm.
After installation and minor problems I managed it to send a mail
addressed to myself encrypted as a S/MIME mail.

The trial to decrypt this mail led to the status bar error message

Couldn't load PKCS7 object: unknown error

Exporting this mail and trying to decrypt it with "openssl smime" only
worked after explicitly declaring the kryptographic content to be in DER
format.

Does anybody have a solution for this?

System OpenSuSE 11.2 with openssl 0.9.8d 23.7.

Best regards
Henning Hucke

I can confirm this issue, using Debian Etch and Lenny.
