        Hi,
you are right. There is a feature request along these lines. The mail
certificates has no UI management except of that "accept/reject" dialog,
which is definitely not enough. I noticed a bug filled some time ago,
but I cannot find it now. I think it was similar to:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670114
while I see you also filled:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728294

Correct. It's a private directory for mail-related certificates, where
the copies of the certificates are stored. It's only one half of the
stored information (currently (3.12.x) at ~/.local/share/camel_certs/).
The other half is at ~/.local/share/evolution/camel-cert.db where is
stored actual trust set by the user. Deleting the camel-cert.db file may
drop the stored setting for all certificates at once.
        Bye,
