Hi,
it's when you encrypt to yourself, the "Always encrypt to myself..."
option, to be able to read the message in your Sent folder, when you
send a message encrypted to Alice.

Unfortunately not, evolution doesn't do this. It can preselect the
sing/encrypt S/MIME / GPG when the message you reply to is
encrypted/signed, but it doesn't check certificate database before send,
neither contacts as such (they can have their own certificates stored
too).
Bye,
