I can confirm that this issue still exists in Evolution 3.2.3 provided
by 12.04 LTS

But I don't want to reopen this issue /in Evolution/ ... at least not
quite yet, as I'm not sure it belongs here (or not just here).

I believe the correct approach would be to have an application like
seahorse manage the CA's that a user trusts and then have other
applications like Evolution, Thunderbird, Firefox, Epiphany, ...  defer
to gnome-keyring to verify the key's and CA's that a user trusts.

I'm uncertain whether gnome-key or seahorse have any support for CA's
and I fear that most CA handling is within each application as is the
case for Evolution.  But then the handling of CA files must become much
simpler that what is currently offered.
