IMAP Download and Verify Signed MIME

See more IMAP Examples

Downloads the original MIME of a digitally signed email and saves the .p7s signature along with other MIME parts. It then imports the email into a Chilkat email object to unwrap the S/MIME and verify the signature, and subsequently saves the attachments if they haven't been saved already. VBScript
