Bug#757418: kmail: fails to fetch SSL certificates for pop
Package: kmail
Version: 4:4.4.11.1+l10n-3+b1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I installed kmail on Debian 7.5 and lxde.
I configured it to pop mail from my pop account(s).
I tried to download e-mail.
kmail failed to fetch and recognise the SSL certificates required.
The error message showed the certificate (after a few clicks)
of the server, but did not show the CA certificates.
I tried several times, with and without kleopatra installed.
the server happens to vps-unixweb4.totalhostingplus.com .
I used iceweasel to obtain the server certificate, then
used openssl x509 to display it.
It contained a URL so I used wget to obtain a copy of the certificate
of the intermediate CA
the Server certificate obtained by iceweasel has the same
fingerprint as the server certificate display by kmail.
According to "openssl verify ...", the intermediate certificate
validly signs the server certificate.
It would be nice if in future kmail can handle a chain of
certificates for pop over SSL and using TLS.
Thank you very much indeed for maintaining kmail..
with best regards from
Richard Betham
