because TB! is the only client on the face of the planet which will not
allow you to accept an expired cert, you have to install Stunnel and
configure it manually, then open up that first, then use TB! for that
server. You see the good people at Ritlabs will not allow you to trust
yourself to make a judgment whether you are smart enough to accept certs
that have expired on IMAP servers.
