According to the link at
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/officeappcompat/thread/3a19bbc7-9c6b-40ec-823d-16fd88e8de38
Outlook 2010 is OL2010 is using “sender key ID” instead of “issuer
name and serial number” – as per an SMIME standard, but can be
reverted to an older style using a registry key.  I suspect that NSS
is not supporting "sender key ID" yet/properly.  I think Thunderbird
needs this fixed...
