I posted my issue on Thunderbird-Enterprise before and Ludovic Hirlimann
sent me here.
I created an own CA and put the cert in cert8.db by GUI in Thunderbird 10
ESR.
As far as I understand it, the way to go is to put the corresponding
cert8.db file in defaults/profile in the program directory. (Which works for
mimetypes.rdf.)
For what I tested it does not work. On a blank profile cert8.db is always
the original file, my CA is never included.
If I copy back cert8.db by hand, the CA is in there. So the file itself is
fine, but it seams to be never used.
What did I do wrong?
Perhaps the cert8.db file in defaults/profile in the program directory
is not being used by Mozilla programs?
Is there anyone who can say for sure, if this is true or not?
Is there a better place to ask?
In Firefox it should work this way, according to
http://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/30/customizing-firefox-default-profiles/
"If you add additional files into this directory, those files are copied
into the default profile along with the rest of the files. This is most
commonly used if you want to have default certificate databases. I’ve
seen cases where someone started Firefox, added the certificates and
certificates authorities they needed and then copied the various *.db
profiles from their profile and put them in the default profile so all
their users would get them."
