//! CMS archive
//! SMIME implementation using CMS
//!
//! CMS (PKCS#7) is an encyption standard.  It allows signing and ecrypting data using
//! X.509 certificates.  The OpenSSL implementation of CMS is used in email encryption
//! generated from a `Vec` of bytes.  This `Vec` follows the smime protocol standards.
//! Data accepted by this module will be smime type `enveloped-data`.
