Depends on how its done.

If we do something like the pgp code, which might work in some cases,
then we just need a command that we can execute that can do the various
s/mime operations.  "openssl" part of the OpenSSL package has some
support for s/mime, and it coudl be used.  Then you just need a wrapper
in camel to execute it properly.  We already have a class that should be
subclassed for this, etc (the class can sign/verify/encrypt/descrypt
data basically - no management operations).

To do it 'fully', we'd need a c ssl library (thread safe as well), that
can sit behind the same interfaces (e.g. see camel-multipart-signed for
an object that uses the gpg interfaces we have for pgp mail).
