Noel,

Sure I can commit my S/MIME code into CVS, but if I understand well your idea, you 
want a mailet to be able to check an incoming message's S/MIME signature, while my 
mailet does S/MIME sign an outgoing message.

In my production system I use "remote control mailets that accept messages encoding 
requests", with security given by the "SMTPAuthUserIs" matcher. Moreover, any 
matcher/mailet can check the user with the "org.apache.james.SMTPAuthUser" attribute. 
If the sender of the "messages encoding requests" is a user known by James, and 
SMTPAuth is on, I think that this approach is simpler to set up than using S/MIME.

Did I understand well your idea?

Regarding my S/MIME code, I will talk about it in a reply to your "[PROPOSAL] Release 
Plan" in the server-dev thread.

Vincenzo
