Yes, the S/MIME signatures with SHA-256 were not correctly validated by
Seamonkey (and Outlook). But I was not sure whether there might have been also
some another problem.

Yes, now I know the answer: Setting signature hash algorithm to SHA-1 without
changing anything else during generating the S/MIME message solved the issue
of Seamonkey (and Outlook) indicating the signature being invalid.

Against which component? Is it rather a matter of Seamonkey using an old
libnss without SHA-256 support?

Ciao, Michael.
