    * The security layers of signed and/or encrypted emails
    * are automatically "unwrapped" when loaded into
    * a Chilkat email object.
    * An application only needs to check to see if an email
    * was received signed or encrypted, and then examine
    * the success/failure.  For example:
    IF (loEmail.ReceivedSigned = 1) THEN

        ? "This email was signed."

        * Check to see if the signatures were verified.
        IF (loEmail.SignaturesValid = 1) THEN
            ? "Digital signature(s) verified."
            ? "Signer: " + loEmail.SignedBy

            * Get the certificate used for signing.
            lnSuccess = loEmail.LastSignerCert(0,loCert)

            IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
                ? "Failed to get signing certificate object."
            ELSE
                ? "Signing cert: " + loCert.SubjectCN
            ENDIF

        ELSE
            ? "Digital signature verification failed."
        ENDIF
