I am very excited to report that I managed to find a solution, although
why it worked remains a mystery.
I deleted my certificate from ProtectTools; I then imported it into
Thunderbird, selecting "Embedded Security Chip" as the token. Simple,
huh? Why didn't I try that earlier, I ask myself.
One thing still puzzles me. There's an icon in ProtectTools Certificate
Viewer for each certificate; the one next to the certificate that I
added to Thunderbird "is used for certificates without corresponding
private key" (according to the Help documentation). So where is the
private key? Could it still be in Thunderbird's certificate database? I
don't want it in there; I want it to be safely stored away in the TPM.
Can good 'ol modutil and certutil help me determine where my private key is?
