Description jacob berkman 2007-04-19 15:29:49 UTC 
this builds on the patch for bug 431376, and the same caveats apply here as well.  It may just be better to have a single bug?  if so please mark as a dup and i can attach the patch to the other bug as well.

this patch is a little tricky because we are doing the cert stuff via nss.  nss doesn't currently support concurrent access via multiple applications, and it also may need to prompt the user for a pin, or to accept a certificate.  for these reasons, i have punted the nss bits to the client side and marshal them over either bonobo or the mail stub interface.

it seems to work ok, but i am up for some discussion if maybe this isn't the best approach.
