I have a trial certificate signed by Comodo using a second-level CA certificate, which is in turn signed by a GTE Cybertrust root certificate. The second-level certificate is not distributed with the usual browsers, so it must be supplied by the POP/IMAP server during session initiation.
UW-IMAP does not send this intermediate certificate, so the client is unable to resolve the trust chain and issues a message to the user. I have searched the web and these mailing list archives, and have not found any references or solutions to this problem specific to UW-IMAP.
If anyone has already solved this, they will immediately recognize the problem and can stop reading now; please post a reply here so that future web searches will show the answer as well as the question.
the way we are dealing with this is to provide the other certificates via HTTP download. Those users who care enough not to just ignore the warning or who have mailers which don't allow(!) them to ignore it have to install them into their mailers manually ... it's not perfect, but it works.
