Package: icedove
Version: 3.1.9-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
Recently, Icedove stopped recognizing my e-mail provider's certificate. As soon
as it tries to connect to the server I see a message saying that
"This site attempts to identify itself with invalid information.
Unknown Identity
Certificate is not trusted, because it hasn't been verified by a recognised
authority."
I have to click "Confirm Security Exception" for the certificate to be
recognised (I never clicked "Permanently confirm this exception" on purpose).
You can see the window with the certificate's details on the attached image.
What's more, I can see that the CA information for "VeriSign Class 3 Secure
Server CA - G3" is in fact missing from Icedove's Certificate Manager, but that
same certificate is present on Iceweasel's CM. Other CAs might be missing from
Icedove, it would be nice to have the same list of recognised CAs on Icedove as
what is present on Iceweasel.
Best regards,
Luís Picciochi

Hello Luís Picciochi,
maybe a little bit late but I think this issue is gone long ago.

That's a normal thing if you don't accept the certificate at one point.
Icedove just nows nothing about such certificates as there is no trust
chain that solves the certificate of your provider.
If you trust the cert of your provider there is nothing to concern
about, store the cert and Icedove will not complain anymore.

I don't know excately but this authority is implemented long ago.
So there is no real issue I can see in this report I will close it now.
Please reopen if there seems a need to.
