1783548 - missing S/MIME account settings in TB 102(1.1) (on Windows + macOS)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1782370

(Thunderbird :: Account Manager, defect)

Description

[Klaus Düllmann]

Attachment: smime_mail_cert.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:103.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/103.0

Steps to reproduce:

After annually renewing my free Actalis S/MIME certificate and successfully adding it to the TB certificate store, I couldn't continue signing my mails.

Actual results:

TB 102(1.1) complains about not being able to retrieve the certificate for signing.
On checking the account settings I've realized that the option "security" is missing altogether (both on macOS and Windows).

Expected results:

The newly added S/MIME certificate should have appeared in the security settings and I should have been able to continue signing my mails.

By kicking out the OWL add-on altogether, I could assign my new Actalis S/MIME cert (the old one expired only a couple of days ago) to my [e-mail] IMAP account for signage. Afterwards I've re-added the OWL Add-on and configured my Exchange mail account. Now everything is working as it should - although the "security" settings have disappeared again.
