Decrypt S/MIME using a Certificate with Private Key Access
See more MIME Examples
Loads a CMS/PKCS #7 encrypted S/MIME message and decrypts it back to the original MIME content.
DecryptUsingCert takes a single certificate that already has access to its associated private key, for example a certificate loaded from a PFX.
The file paths are relative to the application's current working directory. Absolute paths may also be used. Supply the paths appropriate to your own environment.
Background. A public-only certificate is insufficient for decryption. The certificate passed to DecryptUsingCert must be linked to its private key, as happens when it is loaded from a PFX/P12 file.
