Hi All. New to Thunderbird but liking what I see. Am trying to install a new certificate but keep seeing the same error message when I attempt to send an email:

Sending of the message failed. You specified that this message should be digitally signed, but the application either failed to find the signing certificate specified in your Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings, or the certificate has expired.

So here is what we know:

The certificate seems to work (I've sent test emails to a couple of test email accounts) when I use it in Outlook safe mode. Can't get it to work in normal Outlook mode because of add-ins, hence my switch to Thunderbird. They seem to appear fine in the S/MIME section for digital signing and encryption and I can even see the certificate when I go into Manage S/MIME Certificates.

Has anyone come across this before / got any ideas about how to resolve this? Thanks!!

After importing the cert into the Thunderbird certificate store you'll also have to select the correct cert in your Account Settings - End-To-End Encryption.

I believe I have done both of these things (deleted and re-entered in both sections just to be sure) but the issue persists and the error message is the same. Any other suggestions?

Check the Error Console (Ctrl-Shift-J) after attempting to send a signed message whether there is anything related.
