You can import/install your personal certificate by doing the following:

Note: You must set a master password first. The Master Password is needed so that imported certificates are stored securely. If you need instructions for setting a master password, look here.

Go to Tools->Options->Advanced->Manage Certificates Make sure that you are on the Your Certificates tab. Click on Import Select the PCKS12 cert. It will ask you for the master password for the software security device. Enter your master password and click OK. Next, it will ask you for the password protecting your personal certificate. Enter this password and click OK.

You should have now imported your S/MIME certificate.

If your certificate was not trusted, look [[Thunderbird : FAQs : Import CA Certificate | here].
