encrypted mail message in MIME format for the input file. The decrypted mail
is written to the output file.
+=item B<-debug_decrypt>
+
+this option sets the B<CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT> flag. This option should be used
+with caution: see the notes section below.
+
=item B<-sign>
sign mail using the supplied certificate and private key. Input file is
specification. When this option is present no translation occurs. This
is useful when handling binary data which may not be in MIME format.
+=item B<-asciicrlf>
+
+when signing use ASCII CRLF format canonicalisation. This strips trailing
+whitespace from all lines, deletes trailing blank lines at EOF and sets
+the encapsulated content type. This option is normally used with detached
+content and an output signature format of DER. This option is not normally
+needed when verifying as it is enabled automatically if the encapsulated
+content format is detected.
+
=item B<-nodetach>
when signing a message use opaque signing: this form is more resistant
=item B<-recip file>
-the recipients certificate when decrypting a message. This certificate
-must match one of the recipients of the message or an error occurs.
+when decrypting a message this specifies the recipients certificate. The
+certificate must match one of the recipients of the message or an error
+occurs.
+
+When encrypting a message this option may be used multiple times to specify
+each recipient. This form B<must> be used if customised parameters are
+required (for example to specify RSA-OAEP).
=item B<-keyid>
the B<-recip> or B<-signer> file. When signing this option can be used
multiple times to specify successive keys.
+=item B<-keyopt name:opt>
+
+for signing and encryption this option can be used multiple times to
+set customised parameters for the preceding key or certificate. It can
+currently be used to set RSA-PSS for signing, RSA-OAEP for encryption
+or to modify default parameters for ECDH.
+
=item B<-passin arg>
the private key password source. For more information about the format of B<arg>
since the content is no longer part of the CMS structure the encoding
remains DER.
+If the B<-decrypt> option is used without a recipient certificate then an
+attempt is made to locate the recipient by trying each potential recipient
+in turn using the supplied private key. To thwart the MMA attack
+(Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) all recipients are
+tried whether they succeed or not and if no recipients match the message
+is "decrypted" using a random key which will typically output garbage.
+The B<-debug_decrypt> option can be used to disable the MMA attack protection
+and return an error if no recipient can be found: this option should be used
+with caution. For a fuller description see L<CMS_decrypt(3)|CMS_decrypt(3)>).
