I have removed and reinstalled these certs several times (including
system reboots after removal) with no change.

Which are you trying to do, encrypt or digitally sign. The latter uses your
certificate, but the former does not. If you are trying to encrypt a
message and you do not have the certificate (public key) of the recipient in
your security subsystem, you will see exactly the message you see.

Problem is I can't even send a digitally signed message to myself,
much less anyone else. I can however send an encrypted message to
myself when I look myself up on the LDAP server.

Click ToolsOptionsSecuritySettings. Are the "Security Settings Name" and
"Cryptography Format" drop-downs set correctly? In IE click ToolsInternet
OptionsContentCertificates. Do you see your certificate?

Yes, all the settings in the Security tab are correct and I have
certificates set for both signing and encrypting.
