Hello,

kindly find below a patch which I have been using in my local setup for
about a year without seeing any hiccups. So I thought it would be worth
proposing to the developers.

The issue I saw with S/MIME encrypted messages was, that the processing
of the MIME tree stopped after decryption. It turned out there was no
handler for application/(x-)?pkcs-mime type entities in notmuch-show.el,
and the "handler of last resort" notmuch-show-insert-part-*/* was
called. Thus, this patch just adds a notmuch-show handler for
application/(x-)?pkcs-mime type entities.

RFC 8551 defines that there is a single child element only ("A body can
consist of a single MIME entity or a tree of MIME entities (rooted with
a multipart).", clause 3.1), hence no list processing of the children is
needed (there's only one).


Hoping to have helped, and looking forward to your thoughts,

  --alexander

Subject: [PATCH] emacs/smime: render decrypted MIME entities in notmuch-show

When processing encrypted S/MIME messages, after decryption the "last
resort" handler notmuch-show-insert-part-*/* was called, because there
was no application/pkcs7-mime handler, resulting in the decrypted
contents not being displayed.

This commit adds a new function
notmuch-show-insert-part-application/pkcs7-mime (and an alias
notmuch-show-insert-part-application/x-pkcs7-mime for the legacy MIME
type) to render the S/MIME protected part after decryption.
