SP3. If I use the same smartcard with Linux and Thunderbird 2.0.0.19 (more exactly icedove from Debian unstable) then I can configure all the necessary stuff (e.g. assign the cert to the mail account) but I cannot use the cert to sign or encrypt a mail.
IceDove is built by Debian so Mozilla is not involved there. You need to ask the Debian folks as to what they've done.
So my question is, is there a difference between the crypto libraries used by the Mozilla Windows and Linux versions regarding the certificate extensions?
There probably are differences, but again, you need to ask the Debian people because they are using Mozilla binaries, making changes, and releasing that code on their own. We have no idea what they are doing.
Have you tried downloading Thunderbird for Linux from Mozilla and trying that?
