Create PKCS7 Attached/Opaque Signature (S/MIME)

Create an S/MIME message with a PKCS7 attached/opaque signature. C++

    //  There are many ways of getting a certificate object:
    //  from a pfx file, from .cer and private-key files, from the
    //  Windows registry-based certificate stores, etc.
    //  Load a PFX file into a certificate object.

    //  Content-Type: text/plain
    //

    //  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    //  The default hash algorithm used in the signing process is "SHA1".
    //  To change it, set the SigningHashAlg property:
