Since you moved your single cert from your business computer to the private machine, I assume you have a p12/pfx certificate file already.
Could you do the following? Close Mozilla on your home machine. Locate your profile directory, and move away the files *.db to a safe place. Be sure to store them safely if they contain precious data. Do not do that while Mozilla is running. Start Mozilla. Use cert manager to import your cert backup file. Now try to read the message again? Does it work now? (To revert to the previous situation, close Mozilla again, and copy back your files to the profile directory.) If that doesn't work, possibly Notes creates a special kind of encrypted messages that Mozilla is unable to decrypt. In that case, contact me by private mail, I'll send you a signed mail to your Notes account, and you could reply encrypted for testing purposes.
