The wall I hit when I was working on it was that libgmime does not (correctly) support S/MIME encryption/decryption. So that's why the command line tools only support signature verification and not decryption. The "good of humanity" solution (assuming you don't think that is eradication of S/MIME) would be to add this support to libgmime. I think upstream would take the patches, but didn't sound like it was likely to happen without external contribution. The "dirty hack" solution would be to use gpgsm or openssl directly from emacs. d
