Hi Gurus,

For digitally signed email messages with smime messages: the recipients are receiving the regular non-signed messages, and the signed messages as attachment in the same email message. below is the command I am using:

openssl smime -sign -inkey /dir/dir1/private -signer /dir/dir1/mycert -certfile /dir/dir1/othercerts -in file -out out_file

My question is:
With S/MIME, is it only possible to send the digitaly signed messages as an attachment; or it's possible to send the signed messages such that the recipients do not have to open up any attachmentment to get the signed message. Like the one you would get with pgp signed messages.

Thanks for all the replies in advance.
I will summarize.

Regards,
Mike.
