(PowerShell) PKCS7 Encrypt using Multiple Certificates

Encrypts MIME using multiple digital certificates. Calls AddEncryptCert once per certificate, followed by a call to EncryptN. The MIME may be decrypted by any owner of one of the certificates + its associated private key.

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

$mime = New-Object Chilkat.Mime

# Build a simple MIME message to be encrypted:
$success = $mime.AddHeaderField("Content-Type","text/plain")
$success = $mime.AddHeaderField("abc","123")
$mime.SetBody("This is a test")

# A digital certificate is required to create PKCS7 encrypted MIME.
# It can come from a variety of sources: .cer file, .pfx file, PEM files,
# an in-memory representation, or directly from a Windows
# registry-based certificate store.

# Load one cert from a .cer file:
$cert1 = New-Object Chilkat.Cert
$success = $cert1.LoadFromFile("myCert.cer")
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($cert1.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Load another cert ...
$cert2 = New-Object Chilkat.Cert
$success = $cert2.LoadFromFile("anotherCert.cer")
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($cert2.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Tell the MIME object to use these certs for encrypting:
# (AddEncryptCert shouldn't fail if we already know it contains
# a valid certificate..)
$success = $mime.AddEncryptCert($cert1)
$success = $mime.AddEncryptCert($cert2)

# Encrypt the MIME:
$success = $mime.EncryptN()
if ($success -eq $false) {
    $($mime.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Display the MIME:
$($mime.GetMime())

# The resulting S/MIME looks something like this:

# abc: 123
# Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7m"
# Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
# Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-mime;
#  name="smime.p7m"
