=head1 DESCRIPTION
-The B<smime> command handles S/MIME mail. It can encrypt, decrypt, sign and
-verify S/MIME messages.
+This command handles S/MIME mail. It can encrypt, decrypt, sign
+and verify S/MIME messages.
=head1 OPTIONS
Resign a message: take an existing message and one or more new signers.
-=item B<-in filename>
+=item B<-in> I<filename>
The input message to be encrypted or signed or the MIME message to
be decrypted or verified.
-=item B<-inform SMIME|PEM|DER>
+=item B<-inform> B<DER>|B<PEM>|B<SMIME>
This specifies the input format for the PKCS#7 structure. The default
is B<SMIME> which reads an S/MIME format message. B<PEM> and B<DER>
structure, if no PKCS#7 structure is being input (for example with
B<-encrypt> or B<-sign>) this option has no effect.
-=item B<-out filename>
+=item B<-out> I<filename>
The message text that has been decrypted or verified or the output MIME
format message that has been signed or verified.
-=item B<-outform SMIME|PEM|DER>
+=item B<-outform> B<DER>|B<PEM>|B<SMIME>
This specifies the output format for the PKCS#7 structure. The default
is B<SMIME> which write an S/MIME format message. B<PEM> and B<DER>
structure, if no PKCS#7 structure is being output (for example with
B<-verify> or B<-decrypt>) this option has no effect.
-=item B<-stream -indef -noindef>
+=item B<-stream>, B<-indef>, B<-noindef>
The B<-stream> and B<-indef> options are equivalent and enable streaming I/O
for encoding operations. This permits single pass processing of data without
encoding. This option currently has no effect. In future streaming will be
enabled by default on all relevant operations and this option will disable it.
-=item B<-content filename>
+=item B<-content> I<filename>
This specifies a file containing the detached content, this is only
useful with the B<-verify> command. This is only usable if the PKCS#7
off text headers: if the decrypted or verified message is not of MIME
type text/plain then an error occurs.
-=item B<-CAfile file>
+=item B<-CAfile> I<file>
A file containing trusted CA certificates, only used with B<-verify>.
-=item B<-CApath dir>
+=item B<-CApath> I<dir>
A directory containing trusted CA certificates, only used with
B<-verify>. This directory must be a standard certificate directory: that
-is a hash of each subject name (using B<x509 -hash>) should be linked
+is a hash of each subject name (using C<openssl x509 -hash>) should be linked
to each certificate.
=item B<-no-CAfile>
Do not load the trusted CA certificates from the default directory location.
-=item B<-md digest>
+=item B<-md> I<digest>
Digest algorithm to use when signing or resigning. If not present then the
default digest algorithm for the signing key will be used (usually SHA1).
The encryption algorithm to use. For example DES (56 bits) - B<-des>,
triple DES (168 bits) - B<-des3>,
EVP_get_cipherbyname() function) can also be used preceded by a dash, for
-example B<-aes-128-cbc>. See L<B<enc>|enc(1)> for list of ciphers
+example B<-aes-128-cbc>. See L<openssl-enc(1)> for list of ciphers
supported by your version of OpenSSL.
If not specified triple DES is used. Only used with B<-encrypt>.
do not support S/MIME. Without this option cleartext signing with
the MIME type multipart/signed is used.
-=item B<-certfile file>
+=item B<-certfile> I<file>
Allows additional certificates to be specified. When signing these will
be included with the message. When verifying these will be searched for
the signers certificates. The certificates should be in PEM format.
-=item B<-signer file>
+=item B<-signer> I<file>
A signing certificate when signing or resigning a message, this option can be
used multiple times if more than one signer is required. If a message is being
verified then the signers certificates will be written to this file if the
verification was successful.
-=item B<-recip file>
+=item B<-recip> I<file>
The recipients certificate when decrypting a message. This certificate
must match one of the recipients of the message or an error occurs.
-=item B<-inkey file_or_id>
+=item B<-inkey> I<file_or_id>
The private key to use when signing or decrypting. This must match the
corresponding certificate. If this option is not specified then the
If no engine is used, the argument is taken as a file; if an engine is
specified, the argument is given to the engine as a key identifier.
-=item B<-passin arg>
+=item B<-passin> I<arg>
-The private key password source. For more information about the format of
B<arg>
-see the B<PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS> section in L<openssl(1)>.
+The private key password source. For more information about the format of
I<arg>
+see L<openssl(1)/Pass phrase options>.
-=item B<-rand file...>
+=item B<-rand> I<files>
-A file or files containing random data used to seed the random number
-generator.
+The files containing random data used to seed the random number generator.
Multiple files can be specified separated by an OS-dependent character.
The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for
all others.
-=item [B<-writerand file>]
+=item B<-writerand> I<file>
Writes random data to the specified I<file> upon exit.
This can be used with a subsequent B<-rand> flag.
-=item B<cert.pem...>
-
-One or more certificates of message recipients: used when encrypting
-a message.
-
-=item B<-to, -from, -subject>
+=item B<-to>, B<-from>, B<-subject>
The relevant mail headers. These are included outside the signed
portion of a message so they may be included manually. If signing
B<-verify_ip>, B<-verify_name>, B<-x509_strict>
Set various options of certificate chain verification. See
-L<verify(1)> manual page for details.
+L<openssl-verify(1)> manual page for details.

+=item I<cert.pem> ...
+
+One or more certificates of message recipients, used when encrypting
+a message.
