.. It's only going to do that for the root and trusted CAs in the
address book. I doubt it's going to do that for generally held
certificates. Even then, certificate status is usual clear in the
encapsulated keys passed with an S/MIME signature.

In which case, while I accept that checking for revocations on CAs is
possible, I stand by the analysis that it's checking for revocations
on held SSL certs.
