Perl module that enables extracting of PKCS#7 "monolithic"
cryptographically signed data, such as emitted by Outlook. It works
with MHOnArc 2.4.9. It comes with a test suite including a real
piece of PKCS#7.
Cool. Are you interested in making the modifications to reflect
the filter API changes in MHonArc 2.5? Also, the routines in
readmail.pl have changed to work with Perl 5 data structures vs
the old Perl 4-style structures.
I have not looked at the code in detail, so I have the following
questions:
. It appears the PKCS#7 filter requires no patches to the main
MHonArc code base. Is this correct?
. Can you supply how one would register the filter into MHonArc
via the MIMEFILTERS resource?
. Can you list any external dependencies the filter relies on
(e.g. openssl)?
I have not looked into the details of PKCS, but if has to deal
with multipart/related messages (like SMIME), you can look at
mhtxthtml.pl to see how a filter can access other parts of
a message. Focus on the resolve_cid() routine.
If the filter can be updated to be compatible with v2.5, I
can include it into the standard distribution.
Thanks for the contribution,

P.S. MHOnArc -> MHonArc
