When I connect from my local mail client (e.g. Thunderbird) the first time (!) 
with a remote
mail server through STARTTLS for a SMTP session then at first a server 
certificate is delivered.
On the Thunderbird email client side a popup appears which prompts me to 
confirm the remote server certificate.

Only AFTER this confirmation I am able to send email through this STARTTLS SMTP 
connection.

Ok. Now lets switch to another scenario where a non-default email client (=NOT 
Thunderbird)
want to send emails through stunnel to the remote mail server.

Everything is setup in stunnel.conf and propriatary email client.  
But how do I get the remote server certificate (for stunnel)?

Is there an option in stunnel.conf to receive and auto-accept the delivered 
server certificate at first?

Where is it stored?

Can I extract certificate from Thunderbird and import it to stunnel?
