I suddenly stopped being able to encrypt/sign my .mac mail and I can no longer participate in encrypted iChats. I finally just deleted my certificate and started over, but that doesn't seem to have helped. I still can't sign/encrypt emails. I've turned on encryption in iChat and it added a cert to my keychain. I then turned on 'Search .Mac for certificates' in keychain and relaunched Mail. Nothing. Any ideas? I've run Keychain First Aid as well.

Oh yeah, I have a .Mac entry in my keychain list, but it is locked and no items are listed in it. I can't unlock it as the lock in the toolbar is greyed out as is the menu item for unlocking. Is this appropriate behavior for the .Mac keychain?
