I can confirm this behaviour. The cause is that kdepim-runtime treats
the SSL cancellation the same as a bad password error and so will
re-establish the connection to the IMAP server which causes the same
dialog to reappear. There is also another dialog behind which has the
option to cancel the connection or change the connection settings
however the SSL dialog prevents this dialog from being clickable. This
has the side effect that if you eventually give up and accept the
certificate, there are numerous bad password dialogs which you have to
close.
