Yes. Years ago, though... Don't get me wrong here: Seahorse is nice for dealing with GPG keys and passwords stored by Gnome. It doesn't show you any S/MIME certs, though. Likewise, the agent doesn't handle the tasks for certs properly. Thus, you should disable the agent (seahorse-preferences will then nag that an "Invalid or no GPG agent is running") and use gpg-agent instead. If you want to see the S/MIME certs, use gpa from the GnuPG project. This application can deal with GnuPG keys and with s/mime certificates, but *not* with the Gnome passwords. I.e. in the end, you need both apps, if you want to see your stored passwords... BTW, gpg-agent also supports ssh-agent, i.e. it calls pinentry to unlock ssh keys which is a *very* nice feature. See the man pages of ssh-agent and gpg-agent for details.
