I have seen this as well. Other email clients work just fine on the same
email message including Outlook on Mac and PC as well as Thunderbird. In
looking at full headers it is clearly marked as an S/MIME message. Even
more disturbing from my perspective is that the actual encrypted state
of the message is not retained on replies or forwards. If there is a
need to encrypt the content of the message the user needs to be notified
of that before it is sent on if it will not be encrypted.
I think this is a serious enough bug to recommend no one use Apple Mail
with PKI.

So, first the header bar (i.e., to, from, subject) stops displaying the status of messages that are signed and/or encrypted. Sometimes if I rebuild the mailbox it will work for a while but in short order it disappears:(
