If you want to do this then you need to implement ICertificatePolicy
on a new class and set ServicePointManager.CertificatePolicy to an
instance of your class.
btw: if you don't do this, the .Net framework will do a standard sense
check for you (i.e. checks expiry date, names match, CA is known)
You would need to implement ICertificatePolicy to check the
certificate's "id-on-xmppAddr" value (not sure how), but everything
else should work out-of-the-box.
