After some additional tests, there is some more information.

Test I have run:

1. Installed fresh Debian Bullseye. It has Evolution 3.38.3-1 and
libnss3 3.61-1+deb11u2.

2. Created a new user.

3. Added a GMail account. The inbox contains a signed email. The
certificate was issued by a known CA. Note that no CA was manually
added to the system store (/usr/share/ca-certificates) or Evolution.
-> Preferences/Certificates/Authorities are populated with a long list
of CAs.
-> The signed mail is trusted.

4. Installed Evolution 3.44.0-1 from bookworm.
-> Preferences/Certificates/Authorities are still populated.
-> The signed mail is still trusted.

5. Installed libnss 3.77-1 from bookworm.
-> Preferences/Certificates/Authorities no longer populated. It only
displays a handful authorities that it extracted from e-mails, but not
the full system store.
-> The signed mail is no longer trusted.



Ubuntu 22.04 (beta) has no problems. It uses libnss3 version 3.68.2-
0ubuntu1.
