what is the equalant method for openssl smime -verify command in mac osx apps
There is none out of the box. Mac OS X provides OpenSSL 0.9.8y. openssl smime was added at OpenSSL 1.0.0. See smime(1) for details.
0.9.8 is also missing cms. And I don't believe you can use pkcs7 - the sub commands look anemic.
You can use OpenSSL if you build and install OpenSSL on OS X. If you build it, configure with Configure darwin64-x86_64-cc. Once installed, the newer OpenSSL will be located at /usr/local/ssl/bin by default.

Out of the box, for verifiying s/mime signatures on OSX, you have
security cms -D -i smime-message-in-der-format.der
I think you need the message to be in DER instead of PEM format. I don't know about -content, could that be the equivalent of -envelope?
