// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Mime mime = new Chilkat.Mime();

// Load the MIME
bool success = mime.LoadMimeFile("encrypted.mim");
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

byte[] pfxData = null;
Chilkat.FileAccess fac = new Chilkat.FileAccess();
pfxData = fac.ReadEntireFile("pfxStore/myPkcs12.p12");
if (fac.LastMethodSuccess != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(fac.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

string pfxPassword = "myPassword";
success = mime.DecryptUsingPfxData(pfxData,pfxPassword);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Display the decrypted MIME:
Debug.WriteLine(mime.GetMime());

// Note: The MIME to be decrypted should look something like this
// when viewed in a text editor:
