Description

Any thoughts on what it would take to support S/MIME? Looking to adopt it for healthcare.

I guess adding support to X.509 certificates would be the missing part, rest of the pgp crypto would work.

Research direction

Start by clarifying the scope of S/MIME support for healthcare use, especially the requested X.509 certificate support and how it relates to the existing PGP cryptography. No files, tests, entry points, or concrete completion criteria are identified; done would require an agreed design and implementation scope.
