Since both of your questions relate to the same thing I'm answering here.
Also, please include part of the preceding thread so people know what you're
talking about.

You can see if what you want can be done by iterating the CommandBars
collection of the Word Document object represented by the WordEditor object
of the Inspector and digging down to where that control is located, then
reading the State property of the control.

If that doesn't work then it cannot be done.

I failed to specify my development environment. I am writing VSTO
addins for Office 2003/2007 using C# and VB. I have tried OutlookSpy,
Spy++, Procmon, etc, etc, to try and find any trace of where the
Inspector or MailItem store the fact of whether "Digitally Sign" has
been selected when WordMail is being used.

Thanks
