Authentication with client certs works in thunderbird
(at least according to some tests I did some time back...)

But if authentication with client certs succeeds,
it should use the IMAP authentication method EXTERNAL
and not ask again for a pass phrase...

Somewhere in bugzilla.mozilla.org is a feature request
from me asking for that feature.
But it was turned down in favor of a planned general overhaul
of the authentication framework
(from which I also never heard again...)

Bye
