Abstract
In the current S/MIME Version 3.1 specification, the header protection is achieved by encoding the whole message as a message/rfc822 MIME media. Since this approach poses some practical problems, we propose to use signed attributes to implement a fully backward compatible S/MIME header protection scheme.
