Thanks Peter. I was able to do exactly what you suggested. The only oddity was that the exported certificate from Outlook was still a .pfx format; however, it forced me to put a password on the certificate. When I imported in Evolution with the password it worked flawlessly. I almost wonder if there is some problem with importing certificates that do not have a password?
