        Hi,
it had been added for 3.18.0+ at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748770

I think the warning doesn't make much sense, as it would apply for all
accounts. The more newer evolution, 3.18.x, or for sure the current
stable 3.20.x series, shows sign and encrypt buttons in the toolbar
when these are used, which can be also used as a verification whether
the message will be sent signed and/or encrypted or not, much easier
than opening the Options menu before sending. With the added option for
the 3.18.0+ mentioned above you are pretty safe even without the
warning, I believe.
        Bye,
