[sylpheed:31931] Re: SSL certificate verify failed [SUCCESS]

[stef]

I should point out that the error message I am getting is related to the fact that the SSL certs are SELF-SIGNED.
Perhaps, the appending procedure to certs.crt is not designed to resolve that, in any event?
Anyone?

Sorry about your troubles Stef!

Cygwin is basically a Unix/Linux command line environment under Windows.

To move around partitions at the Bash shell (or the command line in MC)
you would type "cd /cygdrive/c/[subdirectiory]" substituting the
desired partition (lower case) letter for "c".

At this point, it my be easier if you either send me the certiticate
file or tell me where I can downloaded it.  I'll then append it to the
distribution "certs.crt" file and send it to you.

I'll be away from about two hours from now until tomorrow afternoon.
(My time is UTC -0500.)

Please let me know
