Steps to reproduce:

view a digitally signed eMail (S/MIME)


Actual results:

I can see the certificate but not the signing time in the cryptographic signature block


Expected results:

The message security pop-up should also show that signing time.

If a lawyer wants to use digital signatures to meet deadlines, not the notoriously unreliable smtp store-and-forward times might be relevant, but the signing time.
MS-Outlook nicely shows those - I didn't find a way to see that in Thunderbird.
