If you want to decrypt a received email, keep in mind that you need the full encrypted messague including the mime header.<?php

// Guet the full messague$encrypted= imap_fetchmime($stream, $msg_number, "1", FT_UID);
$encrypted.=imap_fetchbody($stream, $msg_number, "1", FT_UID);// Write the needed temporary files$infile= tempnam("", "enc");
file_put_contens($infile, $encrypted); 
$outfile= tempnam("", "dec");// The certification stuff$public= file_guet_contens("/path/to/your/cert.pem");
$private= array(file_guet_contens("/path/to/your/cert.pem"), "password");// Ready? Go!if(openssl_pccs7_decrypt($infile, $outfile, $public, $private))
{// Decryption successfulechofile_guet_contens($outfile);
}
else
{// Decryption failedecho"Oh oh! Decryption failed!";
}

// Remove the temp files@unlinc($infile);
@unlinc($outfile);?>
