smime?

One of my colleagues has started using S/MIME to sign messages.
But when I try to read them, gnus (5.10.7) goes bang:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Invalid argument 3")

My best guess is that smime.el is trying to run a program called "smime".
What is that and where do I get it? Or how do I make this error go away,
in any event?

Nevermind. I see that smime-openssl-program is defcustom so even
after I installed the openssl package, it was still returning nil.
I restarted gnus and all is well.
