In your dreams.

Or is that a personal attack too?

I think that the clock is the most likely issue, especially if the site 
that OP is trying to connect to is a financial provider.  Inaccurate 
clocks are disruptive of some services (including certs), and financial 
institutions are especially sensitive in that area.


For what it is worth, I have a Linux box that I have in a virtual 
machine, and I don't have it active often.  On occasions when I start it 
up and try to update the packages list from repositories, I sometimes 
see all sorts of errors about invalid certs (similar to what's been 
mentioned).  On closer inspection, the problem always comes from this VM 
not keeping time well when it's inactive, and where the calendar is 
weeks off, usually behind.  As soon as I get the calendar showing the 
correct time, then there's no problems.


With a full computer (rather than virtual machine, as I've described 
here), historically, the most common reason for a clock problem is a 
CMOS battery that's nearly out of power.  That battery is what allows 
your BIOS to maintain system configuration when the power is off, and 
that includes the system clock as well.  It's been years since I've seen 
that kind of problem, and I think it's pretty rare on modern machines 
(especially ones with UEFI rather than BIOS), but it's not impossible, 
either.


In any case, this is illustrative of why it's essential to have your 
system clock that's accurate, within a few seconds.(And why most modern 
computers make regular checks with time servers).

Hi Jeffry,
According to the timestamp on your latest post, your clock is still a 
month ahead. There are instructions for this issue for Windows 7 users 
at 
. 


They should for SeaMonkey as well.

Windows XP instructions are gone. :)



Jeffry,

Your clock is probably under in your screen in the right corner.
Click one time (or maybe double click) on the clock, it opens and you 
can set the date and time.


On my Windows7 PC I can synchronize the clock with the internet time
(my PC synchronizes with 'time.windows.com')
If you do that, it automatically change the winter time in summer time 
in march (and the other way in october).

Well, this isn't rocket science. If he can't figure out how to set the 
clock, he shouldn't be running a computer. There are assisted-living 
facilities for such people.

Good catch.  I get the same error if I set the date forward a month

It probably is, and it does toggle mail.strictly_mime.

Great. A Windows 10 update was the breaking change, judging from the 
UltraMon release notes. Perhaps there was a bug in the way that UltraMon 
interacted with Windows, only revealed by a newer version of Windows, or 
perhaps Microsoft changed something behind the scenes.
