I originally posted this issue on moz.sup.tbird and somebody
suggested posting it here. The suggestion I got over there was
to try https://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/p7mHandler-en.html
but that didn't change anything.
I'm using Tbird 2.0.0.17 (20080914)
When a friend uses an Apple to digitally sign a message, I can
validate his signature OK (so that means I have his cert
properly in Tbird, right?), but when he encrypts the message,
I get a "Thunderbird cannot decrypt this message" error.
He's not using PGP, he's doing it in SMIME.
I can encrypt and sign a message with my cert that he can read.
I'll append first the header of the encrypted message that
I can't read, and then I'll append the header of the signed
message that I can read (because it's not encrypted)
and the signature validates OK.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm kind of new
at this encryption stuff so feel free to treat me as an idiot. :-)

Here's the header of the encrypted message body that I can't read:

And here's a message that's not encrypted but is signed and I can
validate his signature successfully:
