The number one problem when encrypting messages is trying to send
email to an email address that does not exactly match that in a
certificate in your keychain. It often happens that people using
certain email clients can send email with a from address that does
not match there certificate and therefore you can't reply to that
address. The standard is case-sensitive and OS X Mail follows the
standard.

I've searched the list, and googled, and still haven't found help
for this issue. I know there's been a lot of discussion on using
CAC's with apple mail. I'm trying to use an ECA certificate with
Apple Mail, and I'm running into 2 problems.
1. Any message signed using a Verisign ECA certificate, shows up
in Apple mail "Unable to verify message signature". Clicking on
show details, just notes that there was a problem reading the
digital signature. I've trusted the root, the CA, and even
explicitly trusted the actual cert, and i still get this error
message.
2. I can't reply to any signed message using encryption and/or
digitally signing it. Both the signing and encryption icons are
grayed out. These icons are also grayed out if I try and compose a
new message, when the last message I read was one that gave me the
digital signature error. The work around for the latter problem,
is I have to first select a non-signed message, and then compose a
new signed memo, however, this won't work if i'm trying to reply to
someone that sent me a signed e-mail.
