Option to disable S/MIME signature check?

Hi

I would also like to disable the S/MIME signature check. I have no use 
for it. And "Invoking S/MIME..." takes 25 seconds before failing with 
"S/MIME signature could NOT be verified."

I do use OpenPGP. So disabling "crypt_use_gpgme" is not an option for 
me, same for changing "crypt_verify_sig".

In the old thread from 2018, Kevin J. McCarthy proposed this:

But this does not work. According to muttrc(5) the default value for 
these three options is already "", and I am not setting them anywhere.

So: How can I disable the S/MIME signature check while still using GPGME 
for OpenPGP?

Thanks

If you upload your address book to "the cloud", I don't want to be in it.
