Thunderbird no longer able to display S/MIME encrypted messages sent from Outlook App (Android and iOS)

From Microsoft: "Recent Outlook Mobile updates introduced a stricter and more standards-aligned S/MIME message structure. The messages themselves are valid, but some third‑party mail clients such as Thunderbird do not fully support the way Outlook mobile structures the encryption. As a result, these clients may display a blank message body even though the encrypted content is present.

As a workaround, if you need to send encrypted mail to recipients who use third‑party clients, use Outlook desktop or Outlook on the web instead of Outlook mobile. These versions generate encrypted messages in a format that is more widely supported. "

I couldn't find this reported anywhere in these forums. Is there a solution being worked on to address this issue? Or has anyone found a workaround? We are stuck with using the Outlook app until the Thunderbird app supports S/MIME.

Having a link to that would help, but I think your best bet would be to file a bug report.https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/home Just take notice of the other bugs offered as you type and be prepared for someone to "dup" it to the work in progress if you missed it when filing.
