I translate on the fly: after klicking on the sealed envelope:
Message security:
<b>Message was signed</b>
This message contains a valid digital signature. The message has not
changed since it has been sent.
Signature by...
CA: thawte...
List signature cert.
<b> Message was not encrypted</b>
...
So thunderbird tells me that this message WAS signed.

Since thunderbird doesn't list any attachments I looked at the source
and saw this:
------=_NextPart_000_0004_01CA0528.0E8701C0
Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature;
name="smime.p7s"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="smime.p7s"
So, either thunderbird lies about the message being signed or I don't
get it.
Shall I forward that message to you? Is that enough?
