Send Encrypted Email to Multiple Recipients

Demonstrates how to create and send an S/MIME encrypted email to multiple recipients. The digital certificate of each recipient is required. The encrypting/sending process uses each recipient's digital certificate (which internally contains the public key). Each recipient decrypts the received email using his/her private key.
