+It turns out S/MIME encryption requires non-trivial additional code in libgmime. There is no reason to wait for that to support signtures (via emacs+openssl|epg), and verification (via notmuch-cli).\r
+\r
+Here we also test encryption, relying on emacs message-mode facilities.\r
+\r
+(At least) two things could be improved here:\r
+\r
+- we are using some unholy mix of openssl and gpgsm, and it would\r
+  probably be best to get everything working with gpgsm, since\r
+  we are already working with gpg and gpg-agent.\r
+\r
+- It should be possible to do S/MIME decryption on the emacs level  using e.g. smime-decrype-region.\r
+\r
+On the other hand, it seems like supporting signature verification\r
+is a step forward.\r
