Details

12/4 builds. All platforms.
1.) Get a cert for signing email.
2.) Open Compose window.
3.) Edit>Mail/News prefs. Select the cert, and choose to sign.
4.) Address the email and send it.
What happens: Crash.
I'm pretty sure this will be fixed by the fix to bug 112524

John, I am still not able to reproduce the crash, I followed the same steps you 
describe, and obtain the cert from "certificate.mcom.com" for user sectest, and 
I am able to sign and send the message to myself. I tested it on Windows NT 4.0 
with today's trunk build. (2001120410)

I also tested on Mac OS X.1 and Linux 2.4 using today trunk build (2001120408), 
and they worked fine.

I am assuming that the encryption or signing cert specified in the prefs are not 
missing, and they are not expired for this bug.
Maybe John didn't set an encryption set (i.e., only configured the signing cert).
Okay, now I can reproduce the crash by not setting the encryption cert under 
Edit->Mail/New setting->Secure Mail (leave it blank, and just selecting the 
signing cert).

ok, so fix to bug 112524 will fix that bug. Leave it open until we verify.

I just enrolled a cert from thawte.com (I had to it with MSIE because they do
not recognize mozilla and there seems to be another bug with PSM), exported it
from MSIE, imported it into mozilla (it all worked fine until then :) ) and then
changed my mail settings
then I tried to send an encrypted mail (mozilla wouldn't send it due to an error
in settings it said), didn't work ...
then I tried to send a signed mail, crashed
(there are two talkbacks from me (search for my email address) or S/MIME in the body

btw, isn't this critical?
There's a fix in the pipeline see bug 112524.

Verified. The original bug is fixed.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED

Verified again. Importing from Thawte worked without hassle, sending
signed/encrypted mails in all combinations worked.

Just a remark, on the first selection to encrypt the mail without having a SIGN
for the recipient and already having "message security" (whatever that means"
selected, mozilla crashed.
