Yahoo redid their Certificate due to the Heartbleed bug.
You can either use non ssl mail or get their new certificate.
How may one get that new certificate?

You get the cert when accessing the server via SSL/TLS.

I misspoke.

Indeed.

We users don't get the actual certificate, we just access
and confirm the website that uses it.

Then how do you think your browser can verify the cert if you don't get it?

In the past I have had to rename
cert8.db in the Windows Mozilla folder, start SM and then go to the
website in question.
A new cert8.db was created using the latest certificate info which
solved the problem.

That is the troubleshooting procedure in case your certificate store got
corrupted. There is no point deleting cert8.db in order to get a new
cert from Yahoo.

Thank you for the correction.  I learned something new!
It looks like someone posted a SM bug report and fix for this.
