I don't mean to be rude, but you need to read the bug report again. What happens is: Mutt says: -- Mutt: TLS/SSL Certificate check (r)eject, accept (o)nce, (a)ccept always I type: a Mutt saves the cert into certificate_file I repeat: there *is* a cert saved to certificate_file >From then on, every time I do anything that needs a cert: Mutt says: -- Mutt: TLS/SSL Certificate check (r)eject, accept (o)nce, (a)ccept always I type: a Mutt says: Warning: Couldn't save certificate The problem here is that it's already saved the certificate successfully, as far as I can tell. It's somehow deciding that the cert it itself saved doesn't match what it's getting from the same server. > What mutt version? Mutt 1.5.18 (2008-05-17) -Robin -- They say: "The first AIs will be built by the military as weapons." And I'm thinking: "Does it even occur to you to try for something other than the default outcome?"
