Signed mail “no usable configuration”

Signed mail “no usable configuration”

Hi,

One of my colleagues has started signing messages thusly:

  Content-Type: multipart/signed;
	boundary="Apple-Mail=_39F52771-710C-497A-A45F-B8E1A628BB7D";
	protocol="application/pkcs7-signature"; micalg=sha1

On receipt, I get this error:

  epg-context--make: GPG error: "no usable configuration", CMS

If I reload the message, I can (usually; though sometimes the
text/plain parts are base64 encoded for no obvious reason) read it,
but … what configuration am I missing to view them without error?

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm

The message has S/MIME signature (not OpenPGP) so to verify it you need
to have "gpgsm" installed.
