I think you /might/ need to import the certificate as a .p12 file. See:

http://www.ripe.net/db/mail_client_tests.html#Windows_Outlook_Express

which described S/MIME tests for lots of mail clients including OE.

You probably need to edit this certificate's trust setting,
especially if the certificate is self-signed. From Internet
Explorer, choose TOOLS->Internet Options. On the
Contents page, choose Certificates. Find and select your certificate. Choose
advanced and look at all the options available to you in the three tabbed
pages.
I believe you should see a message that permits you to
edit the level of trust.
